Device-to-device-charging

 

If the battery on your device is getting low, automatically transfer power from your Note10/Note10+. Simply activate "Wireless PowerShare" on your notification panel, then place the other device on the centre of your Note10/Note10+ with their backs facing. Separate the devices when enough power has been transferred, or wait until the other device is fully charged.

 

Supports WPC Qi certified smartphone products and Samsung wearable devices

  • Phones : Samsung or other brand smartphones that support wireless charging(WPC Qi-certified devices.). Different devices may charge at different speeds. ※ Other company devices can vary depending on the device setting or design, even for WPC Qi certified devices
  • In case of Wearable, limited to Samsung wearable devices (Gear S3/Sport, Galaxy Watch, Galaxy Watch Active, Galaxy Buds)

Note: The location of the charging coil may vary by device model. You may need to adjust the devices until they connect with each other properly.

Watch our video below showing how it works.

Whilst your Note10/Note10+ is plugged in using wired charging, you can charge another device at the same time.

 

Follow the below steps to activate dual charging:

1 Pull down the notification panel on your Note10/Note10+ and tap the Wireless PowerShare icon to switch it on.
2 Put the centre of the Note10/Note10+ back-to-back with another device.
3 The screen will confirm once the devices have connected. Tap “OK”.
4 If you pull down the notification panel again, a message will show that it is charging the connected device. The Wireless PowerShare icon will also appear on the status bar or on your Always On Display panel.

The efficiency of wireless charging depends on the distance between the charging coils embedded in the devices. You may need to adjust the position of the devices until they connect with each other properly.

  

Depending on the type of accessories or cover being used on your device, the Wireless PowerShare feature may not work properly. It is recommended to remove any accessories and protective phone covers before using this feature.

 

Also check that the back of the devices are free from dust, dirt or moisture before using Wireless PowerShare. 

Note: Only devices that support wireless charging can be charged using this feature. Charging speed or efficiency may vary depending on the device’s condition or surrounding environment.
