Having a set of wireless earbuds is all fine and dandy until you run out of juice when you want to listen to some music away from home. Don’t have a charger nearby? Just use your OnePlus 9. Reverse Charge is a new feature that brings the ability to essentially use your smartphone as a portable wireless charging pad. In some cases, this can even be used to wirelessly charge another smartphone if you’re out with friends and someone else needs a bit of a top-off.
- Open the Settings app.
- Tap Battery.
- Under Wireless Charging, tap Reverse Charge.
- Tap the toggle at the top to enable Reverse Charge.
At the bottom of the page, OnePlus provides a few more details as to what is possible with Reverse Charge. Notably, the other device must be compatible with the Qi charging standard. If no device is connected, the feature will automatically turn itself off after one minute. Finally, if the battery on your OnePlus 9 or 9 Pro is at 15% or lower, Reverse Charge automatically turns off to preserve your phone’s battery.
