If you're envious of the charging animation of some competing phones or even jailbroken iPhones, you need an app called Charging Play and iOS 14. With this combination, you'll be able to stand out.

Charging Play: a great trick

After installing Charging Play, simply combine this application with a shortcut to display cool charging animation effects when the iPhone is connected to its wired charger or placed on a Qi base. Each time you recharge your iPhone's battery, the system will launch the Charging Play application with the animation you have chosen and information on the charge in progress. And the choice, there is a wide variety of animated wallpapers, not to mention the possibility of importing your own personalized videos. You can even choose to have sound for total immersion. Once the iPhone is unplugged, the application will automatically close itself. Simple and effective for those looking for iOS customization without resorting to jailbreaking.

How does it work? Here is the step-by-step tutorial

Now, here is a tutorial to set up a custom animation:

1. Install Charging Play (with ads) or an equivalent application like Charging Play + (without ads) or Charger Master (limited without paying) to have a maximum of choices.
2. Choose the animation and the desired options in the app (auto start, battery percentage display, time, etc).
3. Open the Apple Shortcuts application.
4. Go to the "Automation" tab.
5. Press on "Create a personal automation".
6. Choose "Power adapter".
7. Validate with the option "Is connected".
8. Then, tap on "Add an action" in the next screen.
9. Select "Scripts" then "Open the app".
10. Choose the app in question (depending on the one that was downloaded in step 1).
11. On the last screen, before validating, uncheck "Ask before running" to have a smooth experience .

Now all that remains is to take advantage of your new feature which is sure to amaze the gallery. Of course, recharging will be slightly slower since the screen will remain on.
