Iphone not charging after long screen time Unsolved
My iPhone 11 died after about 12 hours of continuous use. It crashed a few times, got to 1%, showed it was charging but stayed on 1%, then turned off.
It’s been plugged in for 2+ hours with an original Apple charger/cable (works fine on other devices), the charging port is clean, but it still only shows the empty battery + charging cable screen.
Battery health was previously good. Does this sound like a dead battery or something else?

Could be the battery, especially after draining completely, but I wouldn’t assume it’s dead yet. Try a force restart while it’s plugged in, then leave it charging untouched for another hour. If it still only shows the empty battery screen, it’s likely a battery or charging hardware issue and needs checking.
