Fast charge your iPad

Find out what you need to fast charge your iPad.

What you need

You can fast charge your iPad Pro (M5) model up to 50 per cent battery in around 30 minutes.

To fast charge, you need an iPad Pro (M5) model with a USB-C cable, like the one that came in the box, and a USB-C compliant, 60 W or higher power adaptor.

If you're not sure which Apple Power Adaptor you have, check the wattage on the top or bottom of the adaptor.

Fast charging might not work in conditions that are too cold or too hot.
