    Been using the original 5w charger to charge my iphone , problem is it takes forever to charge , got a lend of a 12w ipad adapter from a friend and noticed it charges from 0% to 100% in about 1-2 hrs with 12W charger, with the 5W charger 4-5hrs maybe more.
    , checked on apple site and it said its compatible with all iphone models ,

    Question is : is the higher 12w doing any damage to the battery ?

    No it's safe to use.

    as long as it's an official Apple iPad charger it's completely safe.

    the lightning connector on iPhone 6 and above can draw the full 12w as opposed to 5w. I use my iPad charger as my nightly iPhone charger since day 1 and I have no issues it
