Many iPhone and iPad users periodically encounter similar errors while working with the gadget. Errors can occur very rarely or often interfere with the normal operation of accessories.
Initially, such a message can be seen when trying to use a non-original accessory with an Apple smartphone or tablet without the appropriate certification. However, almost all manufacturers have been able to bypass such checks for a long time, and an error can occur even when working with branded cables, chargers or headphones that were previously connected to the device without problems.
Depending on the version of the operating system, the text of the error may vary slightly, but the essence of the error remains the same. iPhone for some reason considered your accessory a cheap fake and does not want to work with it.
Most often, this error appears for one of the reasons:
► Temporary crashes or problems in iOS.
► The device is using an older version of iOS that was not compatible with the new accessory.
► Internal damage to a cable or other accessory that previously worked without problems.
► Noticeable external damage to the accessory being used.
► Cheap non-original cable stuffing that has not passed the MFI certification.
► Debris got into the Lightning or Type-C port of the device.
