Not in the car, but I have one on my desk. It's made by Mophie and was sold at Apple Stores. Point of the Qi standard is that you can use any compatible Qi wireless charging pad. For use in a car, the challenge is securing the phone so it doesn't slide off. The OE wireless charging pad therefore uses a rubber mat that holds the phone in place and keeps it from sliding around. For newer MagSafe iPhones just use the Apple MagSafe charger. You could even tape it to the dash with double-sided tape and have it double as a phone holder. The other option is using a phone holder that has a wireless charger built in. Ever since I have CarPlay I'm not using phone holders anymore, but I previously used phone holders from https://www.proclipusa.com/. They have wireless charging holders https://www.proclipusa.com/collectio...r-phone-mounts.
