   Trying to parse this, and failing.

     @ChuckMcManis @harrymccracken I *think* the big type is reminding you that if you’ve got a case, it needs to support magnetic charging. And the small type means to remove the plastic that the message is printed on before you use the charger.

     @harrymccracken @ChuckMcManis Or perhaps it's saying that, yes, you need a mag case, and also that you should remember to remove the phone from the charger before using it.

     These all seem valid to me. 🤷♂️

     @harrymccracken lol. I get "verify that you're iphone does magnetic charging" and "remove the case so that there is small enough distance between the phone and this charger to charge it." But yeah, it's cryptic indeed.

     @steter @harrymccracken This is where having the instructions in the native language of the person making the sign and then using a translation app on your phone actually works a bit better. At least a bit more consistently.
