The premise is great. The device extends the life of your mobile battery and reduces E-waste, which is all great. When I first purchased maybe one year ago, their website offered Chargie A and Chargie C, with no clear distinction between the two. The photo however said that the "C" version was for mobile phones, so that's what I purchased. As it turns out the unit has a USB C output, but most people's cable and chargers are USB A to USB C. In the beginning the company was very responsive/receptive to my emails and questions. When I discussed returning this and getting the other version they did not want to take it back and suggested they would send me the proper cable free of charge to which I agreed. This unfortunately was the last I heard from them and I ultimately had to purchase the cable on my own (USB-A to USB-A)The app is ok, and includes many features for special use cases that I never use. You can customize at what charge percentage your phone will stop charging. As it turns out there is a battery saver function on my Samsung phone that stops charging at 85%, making the device unnecessary. My issues are1: The website was unclear about the different versions. They said they would fix the website and the did add a part which explains the inputs and outputs of each device, but the confusing part that misled me is still there.2: The were going to send me the proper cable to use the device instead of returning/exchanging, but they then stopped communication.3: My device seems to only work about 50% of the time now. The device will appear to be receiving power, but my phone does not recognize it is being charged. When It does this I have to unplug and re-plug the device.4: I hate when there is a full price listed that is not actually the full price ($40) and then pretend you are getting a great deal on sale. To the company's credit, I think that many of these less than favorable reviews are more likely user error than device error. I would consider purchasing again if the price was more reasonable, say $14.99 instead of the $28 that I spent originally.
