Hey all 👋

I bought an Anker braided USB A to lightning cable a few weeks ago because my official Apple cables kept fraying.

Anker was the brand recommended to me however, the lightning end seems to be loose. If I nudge my iPhone the connection drops (very annoying as I use it in my car for GPS and once knocked, CarPlay switches off).

Is there an alternative brand I should go for instead? (I thought Anker was the go to brand)

Cheers!

    Honestly, reach out to Anker. When I had issues like this with an usb-c cable years ago they immediately sent me a replacement and did not even want the other one back.

      Ah no, I just checked a pair of wired EarPods and when I nudged them slightly the music on my iPhone paused. Looks like it might be the port on the iPhone itself……
