3Why would _how_ the device is charging matter? – dandan78 Sep 15 '17 at 13:04

You will get a quicker answer on the Apple Developer Forums, if an API is available. – Robotic Cat Sep 15 '17 at 15:04

As for now there is not any data for detecting this. On your UIDevice.current
object you currently have batteryState
which is an enum of UIDeviceBatteryState
which currently have:
- unknown
- unplugged
- charging
- full
Maybe Apple will add wireless charing to it in the future.

At the moment there's only one unofficial robust Chargifi API
for wireless charging control and iOS notifications.
Look here for other useful info about
Chargifi API
andChargifi SDK
.
Let's wait until WWDC 2018 begins. I suppose AirPower wireless charging pad built on Qi standard will be released at that moment.
