Hi again. So I have a magnetic car mount but the magsafe thing on the back isn't strong enough to stick to my car mount. Can I add a metal plate on the back, behind the phone case, that came with the car mount so I can properly use it? I don't use wireless charging at all. Just wondering if that plate will interfere with how the phone works or its battery. Thanks.

I have an iPhone 11 Pro, so no MagSafe (the magnetic attachment mechanism). I'm sure someone with an iPhone 12 can confirm the below statement.

On my phone, I have used a magnetic pad to stick it on the magnetic car mount without any issues. The only problems were that the pad will unglue itself from the phone case; nothing with the phone.
