How do I tell if my phone is rapid or regular charging?

Check the battery charging status on your phone. Most will include the term 'charging rapidly' or similar or show an icon to indicate the phone is charging rapidly. Understand though most phones will in general automatically reduce their charging rates as the battery charge level gets closer to 100%. You may see the phone charging rapidly from 0% to say 80%, then a reduced rate from 80% to 90% and then a lower rate above 90%. Check your phone owner's manual for specifics for your device.
