Apple showed off the airpower wireless charging mat again in 2017 and is expected to be launched in 2018.
Then, in 2019, Apple threw the plane mat at all.
Airpower announced as a wireless product can charge three devices simultaneously – iPhone, Apple Watch and airpods with wireless charging case.
While the idea of charging three devices together sounds good, Apple cannot launch it because complex circuits include a charging sensor.
Now, a developer named Giulio Zompetti, gets one of the prototypes of air charging mats from e-waste sources in China.
Zompetti posted a short video from the plane mat on Twitter.
And if Apple launches an airplane mat, then this is like that.

But on October 2020, the prosser made a claim that the product was ‘dead’ again.
“All prototyping / aircraft testing has been removed from the schedule for 2021.
The source of doubts that it will be retrieved again.
It seems once again, the air air is dead,” Record Proser.
Interestingly, there is still hope for airplane mats.
According to a report by Bloomberg, “Apple is still exploring wireless chargers in the future working with failed air power, filling mats designed to simultaneously turn on the iPhone, Apple Watch and Airpods.”
This is how airplane mats might look like if Apple launches it
