2012 535I Iphone slow charge

I have seen several discussions on this here, but i still cannot come up with a clear answer. I am plugging my iPhone 5 into the USB port in the center console w the white cord supplied from Apple. The phone charges at a snails pace. What do i need to do to speed up the charge time?
Thanks

Get a cigarette lighter usb adapter that is low profile. You can plug it in arm rest

I have the Kensington PowerBolt Duo Car Charger and it has two USB ports: one that is 2.1 amps and one that is 1 amp. Charges my iPhone and iPad fast.

also worth bearing in mind that once the battery has got to 80% charged, it will charge at a slower rate, wondering if this is what you are seeing?

See the website here from apple that explains it in more detail.
