love this device. bought it mainly for the qualcom quickcharge but it has just the right amount of extras to make it useful yet simple. It has saved me multiple times in instances where i forgot where i parked, it keeps you in the know about your batteries voltage level and you can also customize the color of its led ring to match your cars accents or your mood as well as turn it off. thumbs up roav.
I got this for QC 3.0 which works, otherwise, this app and devices, dont seem to be release ready. I tap a square and it says I have a 2 port ! I have a three port, the box does not give a model number, just "3- port Car Charger with Car Locator" "SmartCharge Halo" halo refers to a ring of light inferring bluetooth status. Setting its color could be useful, except the color settings are for just one state. Its mostly a waste, except it does pulse intensity sometimes.
This intelligent charging system prevents my phone from overheating and charges my Samsung Galaxy S9+ at super fast speeds. Definitely a must have for your vehicle, especially if you have ever had to worry about the charging port being disabled due to moisture. Setup is easy and I love that there are 2 air vent mounts for stable mounting with various air vent setups.
Requires registration with email for no reason, but doesn't verify, so make one up. Claims that account deletion was improved in current version, but I can't find any such option. Also, permissions seem to be more then the minimum needed. If they offered acceptable explanations, I would consider giving more stars. Overkill for a car charger.
The battery voltage doesn't seem to update very often. Have to unplug from the car few a few seconds and replace to get voltage updates, and sometimes that doesn't even work. I then have to close the app and unplug and replace the charger again. To get accurate voltage reading. Love everything else.
Hasn't worked in a while. No surprise since last update was 3 years ago. When it did work, it was pretty decent, but the map hasn't loaded in a long time and the app doesn't even provide an address or coordinates to copy into another map app. Fairly useless now.
The dc voltage reading is nice but the refresh rate is like a day with no manual voltage update. The map used to work till the last update(which was forever ago) or two. Changing the color is kinda nice though. Wish it would have more configuration of it like the refresh rate of the voltage reading.
Nice app to go with a very nice car phone charger. I like that I can change the ring color to match the red orange hew of my cars dash lights, it looks like it was made for my car! The parkiing spot GPS map is spot on accurate and the car battery meter is just icing on the cake, I love it! Thanks ROAV!
Simple and easy to use. Nice features that are all automated. Just a nice little something that makes the car charger better than others, plus it's an excellent car charger - the app is just icing on the cake.
it says it supports quick charging and neither port quick charges my S10 plus it takes longer than the broken charger I replaced The only thing halfway decent about it is you can change the LED light if you like interior decorating or something. how could something say it supports quick charging but not as big of a brand as Samsung or S10 plus. The customer service chat robot is garbage
2 or 3 years and I never even knew it was a Bluetooth device and then all of a sudden it showed up available devicen myI didn't know if I could change the colors on it I knew they changed when I was charging my phone I thought that I guess it was just my phone connectingI didn't know that I didn't I didn't have to put my account and I could have put some random one in and the map doesn't work it's useless never have I seen a map but then again I've had the thing for two yr to find doesn't work.
Love the Roav Spectrum charger, but i have an issue with the disconnect led staying on the aqua color unless i open the app, then it automatically turns to red once loaded. I turned the disconnect led off, but it still does it sometimes. Is there a way to factory reset it?
This app is annoyingly intrusive. Primarily the notifications that can't be dismissed. I get that you want me to log things, but if I don't want to, leave me alone. I feel like the nature of this app forces me to choose between uninstalling the app, or going all in using every feature.
Edit #2: oh, it hasn't received an update in over 2 years. That's great. Edit: making my review a 1 star review. It's been over 5 months and it's been like that. I think I've given up on this which is a pity because I genuinely like the Anker and Anker owned brands like Roav. I already have the Nonda Zus car charger and it works fine so far. Original review: Running Pixel 2 Android 11 beta. It isn't showing the map anymore regardless of the WiFi or data connection strength.
Maps part use to work fine on my Android 7.1.1 device. Got an Android 10 device and it no longer works. The last update is from 2018 so no wonder.. Put out some updates Anker! Your products are generally good except when any software is involved.
The app has broken English, which to a native speaker is very hard to understand. App appears to have just been run through a translator program, with no actual verification of grammar and sentence structure
The map no longer seems to work, so the the whole parking bit is useless. Last time this app was updated was May 2018 so I guess pretty soon the rest will stop working too. Please update the app! And fix the bugs.
Very helpful app...it definitely keeps you on point about your car battery, and the car locator is absolutely great to finding your car in big parking lots in huge shopping mall areas...
GPS tracker which is one of its selling points doesn't work. Probably won't get fixed it hasn't been updated since 2018. Still works as a charger
the one thing i like it it helps me find my car when i come back out from a store because i am always forgetting where I parked. the thing i did not like it one day it decided not to work at all and i had to install and reinstall not once but several times before it decided to kick in and start working again, it had paring and connecting issues. eventhough the day before it worked great.
