iPad Air help?

I have an iPad Air generation three, it doesn’t charge a lot of the time if I move around the house and I wiggle it around sometimes I can get it to charge. Since that doesn’t really work for me, I’ve been trying everything else to fix the problem. I’ve cleaned it out, I’ve turned it on and off and as I said I’ve kind of tried all of the other electrical outlets around me, but no luck. I am guessing that maybe one of the pins inside is bent or something. My question is-is there a wireless charging way that I can charge up this particular iPad

iPad Air, iOS 12

I cursory search shows that the ipad does not support wireless charging.


Is your ipad still under warranty? If so, make an appointment at an authorized service provider and have them check it out.


It sounds like the charging port’s connections to the battery or the ‘guts’ of your ipad is loose. Each time you wiggle it may be the time that last loose connection gives loose.
