Wireless Charging Check: Qi

Wireless Charging Check answers two questions about your phone — honestly.

1. Does my phone support wireless charging?

We don't guess based on your phone model. Lists of "supported devices" go stale within weeks. Instead, we tell you only when we actually see a wireless charging event on YOUR device. Until then, the app simply invites you to test it on a charger. That's the only honest answer Android can give.

2. How fast is my wireless charger really charging?

The moment a real Qi pad is detected, you see live voltage, current, wattage and battery temperature — all read directly from Android's battery API. A 60-second sparkline shows how your charge speed changes over time, peak this session, and an alignment hint that suggests repositioning if your phone is charging slower than it was a moment ago.

WHY THIS APP EXISTS

The Play Store is full of "wireless charging tester" apps that confidently tell you yes or no based on stale device lists. They're frequently wrong. Read the 1-star reviews — they're full of "told me my Pixel 10 Pro doesn't support wireless charging." That's how every static device database eventually fails.

Wireless Charging Check makes a promise: we will never lie to you about your phone. If we haven't seen wireless charging happen on your device, we say so. The moment we do see it, you have proof.

LIVE METRICS

• Power in watts (live, 1 Hz)

• Voltage and current

• Battery temperature with warm/hot warnings

• Battery percentage

• Charging speed tier (Slow / Standard Qi / Fast Qi / Premium Qi / Ultra)

• Peak wattage observed this session

• Alignment hint — try a small reposition to find the sweet spot

• 60-second sparkline of recent charging history (within this session only)

REVERSE WIRELESS CHARGING

We're honest about this too. No public Android API exposes reverse wireless charging (a.k.a. Battery Share, Wireless PowerShare). We can't detect it for you — but we tell you exactly where to look in your settings, per device brand.

PRIVACY

• Zero runtime permissions. No location, no contacts, no nearby devices — nothing.

• Only two timestamps are stored locally: when we first saw wireless charging, and when we first saw dock charging. That's the entire substitute for a device database.

• Battery readings are NEVER stored, NEVER transmitted, NEVER synced anywhere.

• AdMob banner ads at the bottom, with EU consent (UMP) where required.

DESIGNED FOR

• Anyone considering a new wireless charger or Qi pad

• Anyone whose phone seems to charge slowly and wants to know why

• Anyone tired of charging-tester apps that lie about their device

• Anyone who wants to verify Qi support before buying a wireless charging accessory
