Setup

Proper installation of the Mophie Snap Adapter is crucial for optimal performance. Follow these steps carefully:

1. Clean the Surface: Use the provided wet and dry wipes from the installation kit to thoroughly clean the back of your smartphone or phone case where the adapter will be placed. Ensure the surface is completely dry before proceeding.
2. Position the Alignment Guide: Place the alignment guide (template) from the installation kit onto your phone or case. This guide helps ensure the magnetic ring is centered correctly for optimal wireless charging and accessory attachment.
3. Apply the Snap Adapter: Carefully peel off the adhesive backing from one of the Snap Adapters. Align the adapter within the circular cutout of the alignment guide and firmly press it onto the cleaned surface of your phone or case. Apply pressure for a few seconds to ensure strong adhesion.
4. Allow Adhesion to Cure: For best results, allow the adhesive to cure for at least 24 hours before attaching any magnetic accessories or using wireless charging. This ensures maximum bond strength.

Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Mophie Snap Adapter, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Keep Clean: Regularly wipe the surface of the adapter with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and debris. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish.
• Avoid Extreme Temperatures: Prolonged exposure to extreme heat (e.g., direct sunlight in a car) can weaken the adhesive. If operating in hot environments, ensure the adhesive has fully cured and consider using a phone case for added protection.
• Handle with Care: While durable, avoid excessive prying or forceful removal of the adapter once applied, as this can damage the adhesive or the phone/case surface.

Troubleshooting

• Weak Magnetic Hold:
  • Ensure the adhesive has fully cured (24 hours recommended) before heavy use.
  • Verify that the wireless charger or accessory is MagSafe compatible and functioning correctly.
  • If using a phone case, ensure it is not excessively thick, as this can reduce magnetic strength.
• Adapter Detaches from Phone/Case:
  • The surface may not have been adequately cleaned or dried before application.
  • Excessive heat can degrade adhesive over time. Consider reapplying with a new adapter from the kit if necessary, ensuring proper surface preparation.
• Interference with Phone Functions (e.g., S Pen, NFC):
  • In rare cases, magnetic accessories may interfere with certain phone features like S Pen functionality or NFC. If this occurs, try repositioning the adapter slightly or removing it if the interference is persistent and problematic.
