Been using for years
Well, it worked great for a while. Then iOS 26 seemed to have messed it up.
I do not use schedules. I always want my phone to charge to 85% and stop.
But, now it will display charging paused, yet continue to charge and i wake up with it at 100%.
I have tried turning off every setting. Sometimes it will work, but most times it ends up overcharging.
Guess I’ll have to get a new phone that can manage this on its own.
As for the UI: The new look is too overdone! Everything is too big! It no longer fits on one screen, and whenever I try to scroll up or down I end up accidentally changing the charge limit. I have an iPhone 14 Pro Max, running standard zoom level. Please shrink the whole thing down! The battery image doesn’t need to be that huge.

Used to work on iOS
I don’t know what the update that they did. I have had these for about 3-4 years. Haven’t always worked on iOS devices fully. Usually, I have to go into the app to make sure that it connects to the correct charge (I have three of them , two USB A and one USB-C ) and then it would work. Ever since an update of late no matter what I do, plug it in open the app, make sure it’s connected before I leave it. It never stopped charging my iPad until 100%. It loses Bluetooth connectivity. Would not recommend anymore. The device I spent money on and they ruined it with an app update, so much for trying to save my battery.

Was Marvelous, Now Only Works Intermittently
Bought two Chargie-Cs at the same time thinking I would keep one in reserve just in case. The one I hooked up initially worked great, wonderfully, for the first 2 years. Then suddenly, and with mine it happened once iOS 26.0 was onboard, it stopped working consistently. It would always connect and find my phone with my settings intact but 50% or more of the time would permit my phone to charge to 100%. As of today, it has permitted 100% charge every night for the last week.
So, clever fellow that I am, I got my spare out (never used since purchase) but discovered I couldn’t use it at all. The app simply wouldn’t find it and connect it. I followed the in-app instructions to the letter. No dice! I tried 3 days in row after subbing my original back in. Still no luck.
So again, clever fellow that I am, I used the in-app ability to send a note to the developer asking for help. Sent the request 3 times over a week. No response at all.
3 stars for the time it worked. Would be 5 stars if it hadn’t crapped out on me, if the replacement had worked, or if the developer had answered my calls for help. For now, avoid this device and app like the plague. If an eventual app update solves the problem or the developer ever does contact me with a fix, I will change the rating to 5 stars because when it worked it worked beautifully!

Horrifyingly bad after update
Used to work most of the time. After the last update, less than 10% of the time. It just goes straight to 100% or anything else you didn’t set. lol. What a joke.
Broken again
Yay the developer added CarPlay pass through (unclear if it actually works - doubt it) but your schedules are erased (again!) and even when you add them back you’ll wake up to a phone that hasn’t charged because they ruined everything else in the app - again! Stop messing with the app! Just give me basic functionality that actually works!
