My I pad air 1 straggling to charge why?

Takes too long to charge

Welcome to iMore!

Have tried a different cable or charger. Have you tried plugging it into a wall and computer. If trying these does not work, then it is possible that the battery could be gone and you may need to have it replaced.

Takes too long to charge

It could be several factors. Most probably an aging battery starting to fail... Try with another charger (USB ports on a computer could not provide enough amps): if you have the same issue is the battery

It's an older device, the battery could possibly be going bad.

Try using the original piece that plugs into the wall and the original cable that came with your iPad Air. The setup you are using now may not draw enough power. The cable could also be a bad cable. Hope this helps!
