Apple warns users: Never place iPhone under a pillow or blanket while charging

According to news on April 28, the last action of many people before going to bed is to charge their mobile phones to ensure that they have sufficient power for the next day. Apple recently posted a warning on its support page, "Important Safety Information for iPhone," reminding users to never charge their iPhone under a pillow or blanket.

The warning states: "Never sleep on a plugged-in device, power adapter, or wireless charger, or place them under a blanket, pillow, or your body. During use or charging Please place your iPhone, power adapter, and any wireless charger in a well-ventilated area. Please be especially careful if you have a condition that affects your body’s ability to sense heat.” A fire accident may occur if the battery is hidden under a pillow or blanket while charging. Therefore, this warning applies not only to iPhones but to all smartphones. Make sure to charge your phone in a well-ventilated area before bed, away from pillows and blankets. Apple also reminds users to avoid using damaged or inferior chargers and data cables. Apple recommends using third-party charging accessories that are MFi certified (Made for iPhone) or other third-party products that comply with USB 2.0 or higher standards and relevant country/region safety regulations. Apple said: "Using damaged cables or chargers, or charging in humid environments can cause fire, electric shock, injury, or damage to iPhone or other property." Note that Apple also reminds users that the following The situation should attract attention and replace the charger or charging cable in time: The plug or pin of the power adapter is damaged. The charging cable is frayed or otherwise damaged. The power adapter is seriously affected by moisture or water. The power adapter fell, causing damage to the casing. Although these warnings come from Apple, they apply equally to all brands of smartphones.
