@USATODAY this 9V cell charge video is misinformation. I have tried it with multiple phones and it actually discharges phone faster

Consider that cell towers may be down for days/weeks. Think of alternative comms means like walkie talkies ~ 1 mile

Yes the phone lights up. But it doesn't actually have a net positive charge. Notice every single video cuts off w/o showing charge amount

The only 9-volt battery I have is in my transistor radio from 1965.

Did they credit the other source who posted this yesterday?

That source removed the video when realizing it doesn't actually work and actually is harmful by discharging phone faster
