I use my big ipad2 charger on all my iDevices. It simply charges them quicker than with the smaller charger.

I have what I think is a simple question, for which I have not yet been able to find an answer.
The iPad Mini I bought a few years ago came with a charger which shows its output to be 5.2 Volts DC, 2.4 Amps. The iPhone 6+ I just purchased has one which shows output as 5 Volts DC, 1 Amp.
I assume I should not try to use the iPhone charger on the iPad because of the significantly lower current rating. But I can't find anything on the net that confirms this. I see no spec list for it which says anything about charging requirements. Am I right? Or for that matter, where could I find the information on the net?
The other side is, Is it safe to use the iPad charger on the iPhone? After all, it claims to provide a higher output voltage. Could that damage the phone? Again, I find nothing anywhere that says.
I should think that with the recent explosion of USB charging ports all over the place (in cars, planes, hotels, restaurants, and who knows what), it should be safe to plug anything into any of them. Is that true?
Anybody know?
Thanks
