My main issue is that sometimes my iPhone is charging my MacBook and not vice versa … In the end, my iPhone is empty in the morning.

Mine was when laptop tried to charge screen and not vice-versa, using Amazon USB-c to display port. In the end, laptop gets new mother board.

To be fair, OSX warned me something was drawing too much voltage, and I still tried it like 5 times after that, but the screen did flicker on a few times and work for a sec before it all went kaput.
