Anyone have any issues with a dbrand skin interfering with the battery case? I just got the battery case, charged it up then put my Xs Max in and it's not being recognized. I've restarted my iPhone but that did not help. I'm also running the latest 12.2 beta if that matters.

I don't want to rip off my skin to find I just have a bad case. TIA.

Great question. I too have a skin (Slickwraps iron man) on my XS Max and have been contemplating the battery case.

I just tested the battery case on my coworkers Xs Max and the case worked with no problems. I put my Xs Max in his battery case and it didn't work. So, I just figured it was my dbrand skin and took it off. Popped it back into my the battery case and it works fine now. So odd that a thin skin would cause an issue with the Apple battery case when I can wirelessly charge my Max with skin on all kinds of wireless chargers with no issues.

Wow!! I would have never thought that would be an issue. Seems so weird!

What is causing the issue, is it the skin interfering with wireless charging or is it just enough to cause an issue with the lightning connector?
