## Answers

### Answer by Vishal Kesarwani

**Charging a phone overnight may be a problem for other handsets available in the market** but it’s definitely is not a problem for iPhone as apple corporation uses a special type of battery which slows down the rate of charging when it’s about to reach its full capacity. So if you are an **iPhone user you definitely don’t have to worry if you forgot to unplug the charger from your device overnight.**

However, **if you are not an iPhone user you need to take care of these sort things because only high-end devices are been designed with such technology and you need to be careful** that doesn’t charge a device more than required as it will definitely lead in dis-functioning of your device.\
