iOS 18 gains new slow charger warning in battery settings

It would be handy if this new “Slow Charger” warning were not so buried in Settings

The battery section of Settings in iOS 18 now shows when the iPhone is connected to a slow charger.

Alongside giving users more options regarding charging limits, Apple’s new iOS 18 includes a detail about charging speeds. It’s specifically shown in the battery section of Settings, in the section that details battery usage.

As spotted by a user on Reddit, the words “Slow Charger” are followed by an “i” icon for more information. This is the sole information icon in the section, and tapping it goes to an as-yet non-existent support document.

This all seems odd for an issue that will so directly affect how long it takes to charge the iPhone. But this is very first beta release of iOS 18, so just as support documentation will be updated later, perhaps iOS 18 will change to surface this “slow charger” as an alert.
