> I have to clean the USB-C port on my Android phone every couple of months otherwise it won't charge ... this never happened to me with micro USB or lightning ports. You're lucky. I just did a quick poll of the 12 iPhone users near me, and 8 of us have cleaned out our lightning ports in the last 3 months. 2 just cleaned out now as they realised this is what was causing their charging problems.
