Having issues with an Apple Vision Pro battery not charging may make you want to bag up the entire device and throw it off a bridge. While this may provide a temporary reprieve, my guide below covers some solutions that will help better in the long term. Let’s take a look.
How To Fix Apple Vision Pro Battery Not Charging
If your Apple Vision Pro battery is not charging, remember that you need to use an Apple 30W power adapter and USB-C cable. A power adapter that came with your iPhone, for example, will not work. However, users within the Apple Support community are also suggesting that you should completely run the battery of the Vision Pro dry and then charge it back to full power.

The steps will look something like this:
Time needed: 15 minutes
To fix an Apple Vision Pro battery not charging:
- Allow the Apple Vision Pro battery to drain to 0%. You will receive a warning that the headset will shut off. During this time the device will then power down and a pulsing light of amber will flash on the battery light.
- Once the battery is entirely dead, wait five minutes.
- Plug the battery into your USB-C charger and Apple 30W power adapter. Wait five minutes for the device to recharge and boot on.
From here, the device should behave and charge as normal. If not, you may want to consider talking with Apple Support. Some users on Reddit are reporting that they were able to get the battery swapped at an Apple Store the same day, though your mileage may vary.
