It charges, but that’s it...
Updated 2/21/19: Anker reached out and after troubleshooting with them, it was determined that it was app related. Updated review to showcase charger works. App just needs updating.Short version: it charges, marking parking spots...not so much.Longer version: it charges well, that works however the parking capabilities could use some work. Every time I leave my car, I get a notification staying “couldn’t mark spot” which defeats the purpose of the chargers functionality.

Charging works fine, but by a simpler charger
Likes: Three ports to charge devices on the go. One quick charge and two IQ ports, all charge, but Quick charge is definitely faster.Dislikes.-Battery indicator is incorrect. Says my battery is failing. Had the battery checked and it is in good working condition.-Parking tracker shows not where you parked, but where the bluetooth lost connection. It showed my car parked inside the building next to my desk at work, instead of in the parking lot a good couple hundred feet away. Google maps is better.-App crashed twice after installing it. Finally stopped crashing, then found the device after driving for 40mins or so.Neutral-Light color. don't see the point, but was interesting for about 30 seconds. Worked, if that's your sort of thing. I just want to charge my devices, don't care what color it is.I have other Anker devices and I am happy with them. This one had a couple of features I thought would be helpful, but they did not work as advertised. I am returning the two that I bought.

This is a great charger with one minor issue
This charger is great! It has a really nice programmable LED on it. The LED can be set to change color when your phone comes in range, which is awesome! The app and find my car functions work flawlessly for me. The one problem with this charger is it's inability to quickly charge a Samsung S9, Note 9 or S10. This fact IS advertised on the product listing, contrary to what some reviewers have said. However I find it very strange that it supports Qualcomm Quick charge 3.0, and somehow still will not quick charge the s9 series. Other QC 3.0 chargers that I have DO function with the S9 series. Interestingly enough, it does work with the s8 and below. Due to the fact that Anker has advertised the charging issues with this charger, I am still giving 4 stars. It would totally be 5 if it quick charged my phone as it theoretically should. Overall I highly recommend this charger, unless you have an S9, S9+, Note 9, S10, S10e or S10+. I'm not going to be returning it just because of the quick charge issue, as I do like the other functions.

This charger didn't work for me
*Edit*Anker CS reached out to me and apologized for any shortcomings I had previously experienced. All of my issues weren't resolved because I no longer had all the items that failed to work for me.Original review:So I purchased and received this charger, so of course I need to use it. I own or have purchased about a hundred Anker products, seriously. Flashlights, speakers, earbuds, waterproof pouches, power banks, chargers, car chargers, batteries, and cables. There isn't a single family member, including in-laws, that hasn't received an Anker gift from me. Hell, I even purchased three more Anker items right before I started this review.Now as far as this three port charger is concerned, the two Power IQ ports function as they should. The center Quick Charge 3.0 port does not. In the photo I've included, you'll see I have an Anker cable plugged into the two devices, the phone supports Quick Charge and it is activated, but it will only slowly "cable charge". I tried with multiple Quick Charge devices and using different 12V outlets, but the results are the same, "cable charging".My experience with Anker has been about a 10% failure rate before the warranty expires. I've had to jump through a few hoops to get power banks exchanged, they wouldn't exchange a flashlight because they couldn't tell the difference in pictures or videos as to what my complaint was, and after losing the video I sent them, I just gave up and kept the defective light. So even though I got this three port charger on sale at a good price, I'll probably just return it for a refund and purchase one from a different manufacturer. It'll possibly cost more, but hopefully it'll function properly and I won't have to deal with a lie of "hassle free warranty".I'll continue to purchase Anker products but if possible I will return for refund instead of warranty hassles.

Roav SmartCharge Halo, by Anker,
Running a GPS around 500ma I guess, dual battery charger at 2a and 500ma otg&charger y-cable for my note 3. I don't use the app and probably never will since the unpaired color matches my Anker iq 2 port charger right beside it.Fast charge multiple devices no problem. Doesn't jiggle or get loose from socket. Light ring isn't too bright at night.Was kinda hesitant to buy it because I never heard of the Roav division of Anker but they check out. ⚡⚡⚡

It just works.
I was worried about BT constantly connecting and disconnecting being an issue, or having to use an app to constantly ensure that it has marked my parking spot, but it's all automatic. Whether or not you use the charger (I sometimes just leave my phone in my pocket), this thing will connect to your phone and remember your parking spot when you turn off the engine. It's a perfect no frills solution that just works. I have it connected to my Pixel 3. Other than that this thing is way smaller than I thought it would be which is great. I'll have to take a picture later and update this review.
