### 1/5 — Unauthorized Subscription

*2026-07-11, version 4.3.20*

Just like other reviews I’ve seen, I was charged almost 70$ immediately upon visiting the app with zero confirmation. This should be illegal and this app should be taken down.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-07-08, version 4.3.20*

Tried to cancel the subscription, they made it almost impossible to do so, app doesn’t work, customer service is ai generated with no help at all

### 1/5 — Unauthorized charge

*2026-07-06, version 4.3.19*

Had 20 dollar unauthorized charges to my phone without me even knowing. Very poor work.

### 1/5 — Scammmmmm

*2026-06-16, version 4.3.17*

It’s a subscription. $30 super hard to cancel. Don’t do it. They are not clear

### 1/5 — Fraud

*2026-06-03, version 4.3.8*

Used the device one time while in a restaurant in NYC, have realized they converted my use to a subscription at $19.99 per month since November. An email inquiry about predatory practice was engaged and they have no resolution. One does not subscribe to an app that is based on a state where they do not live. 
My case has been escalated to the risk and fraud departments at their merchant services provider as well as my bank and the App Store for fraudulent and predatory practices.

### 1/5 — Jaron

*2026-05-04, version 4.3.8*

BEWARE VERY SHADY CHARGING PRACTICES - app charged me without letting me know - and did not offer a refund. I suggest not using this and buying a power bank yourself if possible, its cheaper and less headache

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-04-26, version 4.3.7*

Scam company doubled the cost under me and won’t let me cancel subscription

### 1/5 — Scam app

*2026-04-21, version 4.3.7*

I have an iPhone 15, and these power banks were charging my phone very poorly. I canceled my subscription to this app last summer, but even after canceling, they kept charging me every month. This is a scam.

### 1/5 — They’ll keep charing you even if you cancel

*2026-04-14, version 4.3.7*

DO NOT download and use this app. I canceled my service last year in August and am still fighting recurring monthly charges from this vendor. I tried contacting them multiple times and all they use is an AI chatbot and never take action. DON’T DOWNLOAD/USE - YOU’LL REGRET IT!!

### 1/5 — Unauthorized Subscription

*2026-03-30*

I got to the screen where it asked which subscription I wanted, and I didn’t select one, because it’s ridiculous to charge $20 a month for this. Before knowing this, I connected to apple pay, and authorized the 1 cent verification transaction. I didn’t get a subscription, and I closed the app, and later that day, I see a transaction from recharge city for $20. They signed me up for a subscription I don’t authorize and charged me $20, which I also did not authorize. This should be illegal, so be careful that you don’t get scammed by them.

### 1/5 — Scam App

*2026-03-14, version 4.3.7*

Charged me $20 without my permission and then the charging station I was at didn’t even have any available chargers. They did not refund my money either.

### 1/5 — Nothing works

*2026-03-05, version 4.3.7*

Every time you try to select “Account” or “Subscription” or anything other than location, there’s just a blank grey screen. Idk if it’s intentional so that you can’t cancel but literally nothing on this app works besides the location finder

### 1/5 — SCAMMERS

*2026-02-26, version 4.3.7*

These guys have been charging me $20 a month since September, with no way to cancel the “membership” (That I didn’t even sign up for) through their app. When I contacted their support for the last charge they told me they had cancelled my membership and refunded me, what do you know I get charged again today. 

DO NOT BUY THIS

### 1/5 — SCAM

*2026-08-11, version 4.3.23*

they charged me for a YEAR and refuse to refund me after they took my credit card info and charged me 60 dollars. I can’t believe it.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2026-08-10, version 4.3.23*

Not working link to support not working

### 1/5 — SCAM - BEWARE!

*2026-08-06, version 4.3.23*

I was told this was a one-time rental fee the ~30 minutes. My phone charged 20 minutes, I’ve been auto-charged $66 for a year subscription that I can’t cancel, and support says their finance team “might respond.”

### 1/5 — SCAM APP

*2026-08-04, version 4.3.23*

this app is a trash & a scam do not purchase took me HOURS + DAYS to simply contact support cancel subscription charged 3x after canceling my subscription no Xxx customer service and still nothing even now new update still doesn’t work. Waste of time + money I would give it 0 if I could

### 1/5 — Unauthorized charge

*2026-07-28, version 4.3.21*

Rented a charger for 25 mins for a rate of $10/hr, checked my bank to find they had taken $20. Support was no help and ghosted me after a single reply. Do not rent from these scammers.

### 1/5 — Charged me without permission and won’t give me a refund

*2026-07-27, version 4.3.21*

I scanned the QR code on one of the machines and put in my phone number and the app charged the card I had on my phone for the premium $65 subscription without my consent. I keep going back and forth with a chat bot to get a refund. Don’t get this app just buy a portable charger honestly.

### 1/5 — Scam/ fraud, do not use

*2026-07-22, version 4.3.21*

Charge without concent $20 per month, impossible to cancel because the app stops working, “write to support” button does not work, and the phone number they provided my credit card company is not answered and does not have a voivemail. Shocking this is still in the App Store

### 1/5 — Luckily it didn’t work

*2026-07-20, version 4.3.21*

Can’t get into the app because it needs to be updated, but there is no updated version. Can’t write to support because the button doesn’t work.  While doing all this my phone died. But after reading the reviews, I think I lucked out.

### 1/5 — Beware Fraud and Scam!!!!

*2026-07-14, version 4.3.21*

App was misleading and then charged me full subscription without confirmation. No refunds when asked and no human support accessible!

### 1/5 — Unapproved Charge!

*2026-07-12, version 4.3.20*

Charged me a whole year of subscription for $65 without me selecting any subscription plan! Completely fraud.

### 5/5 — Loveeeeeee

*2026-06-23*

The app is really convenient and has saved the day for me more then once. You can easily find these stations around the city, when I'm running low on power, I don't have to rush home or hunt for a charger— just plug into a station that's usually no more than a 3-4 minute walle away. I love it!
