Apple devices are the most popular devices chosen for business integration and adoption. If you need proof, just go into any retail store, athletics facility, or K-12 environment. In these areas, you’ll discover a multitude of iPads, MacBooks, and iPhones for various industry-specific use cases.
With every attempt to adopt new Apple tech, however, comes numerous hurdles. In particular, companies struggle with finding the right Apple device charging stations.

At Bretford, we offer charging solutions that integrate seamlessly with Apple’s growing device ecosystem. With our smart hubs and charging carts, you’ll be able to keep your Apple devices safe, charged, and ready to go no matter how many your business has.
Discover how our solutions streamline your Apple device adoption.
But first, let’s go over the biggest problem plaguing businesses that integrate iPhones, iPads, and MacBooks into their workflows.
The Problems Arising From Apple Device Incompatibility
The challenges of device compatibility can lead to several significant problems.
Insufficient Charging
When you use a charging solution that isn’t compatible with your Apple devices, you may experience inefficient charging. As a result, wait times for devices to charge can be longer, which can be particularly problematic in busy environments like schools or offices.
You want your devices ready to go when you need them, and slow charging can disrupt productivity.
Increased Device Wear and Tear
Did you know that using incompatible chargers or cables can lead to increased wear and tear on your devices?
Inconsistent power can strain the battery over time, leading to a shorter lifespan for your devices. This is not only bad news for your tech budget but also creates unnecessary hassle when devices need to be replaced or repaired.
Security Risks
There are also security risks when you rely on third-party providers. For instance, unauthorized access to devices can occur if charging stations don’t have proper security features. This is a concern because it can lead to data breaches or loss of sensitive information.
What an Apple-Friendly Charging Solution Looks Like
Apple devices are among the most adopted electronic assets worldwide. However, with adoption comes the need for infrastructure that supports these devices. Right away, this means charging solutions that are compatible with the unique technical specifications of iPhones, iPads, and MacBooks.
There are numerous solution providers that claim to be “Apple-friendly.” When shopping around, you should look for charging solutions that deliver on the following fronts.
Device Compatibility
Proprietary tech is one of the distinguishing characteristics of Apple devices. Because of their unique builds and components, ordinary charging solutions will not be enough. You will need solutions that are tailor-made for Apple’s ever-evolving line of phones, tablets, and laptops.
Versatility in Power Output
Many businesses have had to resort to clunky and unsafe extension cords. Available and useful as they are, they do come with drawbacks — among them being the delivery of a single voltage output for various devices.
To avoid overcharging your devices and having to check on them frequently, you’re better off selecting charging solutions made for Apple devices.
Apple-friendly charging solutions can deliver different outputs based on the devices being charged. With these solutions in your arsenal, you’re less likely to have to check on your devices frequently. There’s even the added benefit of longer device life cycles since you won’t have to replace them due to damaged batteries.
Cable Management Features
Extension cords may be useful, but they’re unsightly and unsafe. Hence, if you want to retain your office’s organized appearance while keeping your work environment safe, you’ll need charging solutions with built-in cable management features, like our PowerSync Pro Gen 2 Smart Hub and Purecharge Cart.
