Hi all,
After upgrading to 12.4.1 I started occasionally getting the accessory not supported warning with my third-party MFi-Certified charging cables that I've had for awhile. I mentioned it to the wife and she said she is also getting them now. I mentioned it to a guy at work and he's getting them now, too. Three people makes me think it's an iOS thing and not a cable thing. After the warning it stops charging and I can unplug it and plug it back in and it will work.
Anyone else?

12.4.1??
 
Nope. Not seeing this.

Saw something similar with my sister's iProducts. Appeared that the used everyday Apple Lightning cables were giving up the ghost (from external appearances, cables looked fine). Pulled out one of my Anker cables, her husband's cable in his briefcase, a third cable of their's that is rarely used, all those worked fine.

Cables do get stressed at the connectors, and the cable itself from twisting, bending. The cable's MFi chip might be dying. Or the cables are not really MFi. So, not necessarily iOS related.
