my electric shaver is designed to inductively charge, ie, no plugs, I just set it on its base. If the gap between the base and the shaver is more than 1/4"-1/2", it will not charge.
Here in the US our household power is 120v, 60Hz, yet my vacuum cleaner won't run by just holding the plug near the wall socket, it has to be in physical contact with the connections inside.
Besides, batteries have a + and -, right, as does the phone. How are those little electrons that are beaming out from the battery over a ~10"/25cm gap going to know which terminal to head towards? T'ain't gonna happen.
On the other hand, locatable cell phones are on the horizon, all in the name of "personal safety". Ahh, the freedoms we give up when we let others take care of us. Can you say "Big Brother"?
