PSA: MagSafe probably isn’t charging your iPhone when using Continuity Camera

<div class="feat-image">(https://9to5mac.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/2022/08/belkin-continuity-camera-mount.jpg?quality=82&strip=all&w=1600)</div><p>iPhones are powerful pocket computers with advanced chips, price tags largely exceeding $1,000, and they’re at the center of much of our lives. They also, since Apple debuted Continuity Camera (https://9to5mac.com/2022/11/28/macos-ventura-iphone-quicktime-photo-booth-more/) in macOS Ventura, serve as pretty great alternatives to a dedicated webcam.</p>



<p>Unfortunately, as one writer discovered, the dream of keeping an iPhone charged while it serves as your webcam is just that: a dream only. Likely due to heat management features, iPhones tend not to charge when using Continuity Camera—and especially not if you’re using MagSafe.</p>
