May or may not be related to the heat issues when charging that some
people have reported. It may also affect other wireless charging
options.

Warning: BMW Wireless Charging May Break iPhone 15's Apple Pay Chip
-------------------------------------------------------------------
If you have an iPhone 15 and drive a BMW, it might be best to avoid
charging the device with the vehicle's wireless charging pad for
now.

Over the past week, some BMW owners have complained that their
iPhone 15's NFC chip no longer works after charging the device with
their vehicle's wireless charging pad, according to comments shared
on the MacRumors Forums and X, formerly known as Twitter. Affected
customers say the iPhone goes into a data recovery mode with a
white screen, and the NFC chip is no longer functional after the
device reboots.

In an iPhone, the NFC chip powers features like Apple Pay and
digital car keys. Affected users receive a "Could Not Set Up Apple
Pay" error message in the Wallet app, and there does not appear to
be a way to fix the problem. Some customers say Apple replaced their
iPhone after confirming the NFC chip failed, but the replacement
iPhone is then vulnerable to the same issue, so there is currently
no permanent solution.

While complaints so far have come from iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15
Pro Max users, it is possible the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus are
also affected, so owners of any iPhone 15 model should proceed with
caution until this issue is sorted.

It's unclear what the specific cause of the issue is, how many
customers are affected, and which BMW models are affected. We've
reached out to an Apple spokesperson for comment, and we'll update
this story if we receive a response.

It's not related. Many BMW owners report that the wireless charging
system in their cars heats up not just Apple devices, but others, an
extraordinary amount.
