How do I fix 'this accessory uses too much power' error on iPhone 16 Pro Max after iOS 26.0 update?

How to stop getting "this accessory uses too much power".

This is happening after I updated my iPhone 16 pro max running iOS 18.6.1 to iOS 26.0.

I am using the same power source as I did when I was running iOS 18.6.1.

Which is connecting my iPhone 16 pro max to my MacBook pro.


Is there is fix for this problem?
