A 240-volt, GFCI-protected electrical outlet is the new standard for electric dryers. Additionally, four receptacle slots are recommended for the safest dryer use. Regular outlets are 120-volt, so they aren’t appropriate. Gas dryers use electricity, but much less of it. They are usually rated 120-volts. In the UK and the EU, 230V is the standard - much higher than in the US, where the standard is 120V. An adapter with a quoted input level of 100-240V will be compatible with both standards. You may also see the Hertz (Hz) frequency rating of the input voltage listed - i.e. the number of times per second the current changes direction.
If your adapter has a 5v USB outlet it should work. However, be cautious about cheap and nasty end of third party USB adapters which may not be manufactured to the quality you expect from Apple branded equipment. Your Apple power adapter is designed to accept any AC voltage between 110 and 230v, so you only need to do the plug fitting conversion.
You can change a shaver socket for a 230v 'normal' socket, subject to those conditions. From what you have stated, this then means yes, in plain English, change to normal sockets if not in the bathroom and do not plug in anything more than a 150W drain (a guesstimate - you have to check).

This type of wiring is rarely used outside the UK and requires the use of fused plugs. Small appliances, like mobile phone chargers, usually have a 3 A cartridge fuse inside the plug; heavy duty appliances, such as coffee makers, have a plug with a 13 amp cartridge fuse. Almost everywhere else in the world radial circuits are used. In this
Rounding out the electrical wire color code are orange, brown, pink and violet. In U.S. homes, orange is most commonly used like a red wire, particularly in a 240-volt circuit where two hot wires are needed. You might see orange wires in the fire alarm circuit as well. Pink and violet are less prevalent but can be used as travelers or switch
