Posted .Qi charging is not an inherent feature of iPhones. However, there are iPhone cases that can adapt the iPhone to qi charging. They are certainly worth consideration when you are purchasing a new iPhone.

Posted .We are sorry to hear about your dissatisfaction yet your input gives the design team the opportunity to release products that our Customers need and want. The Qi charging feature works great with Android phones because most of them have the Qi charging built in as opposed to iOS devices which require a Qi charging case. You can enjoy music wirelessly from your Bluetooth capable device and there is an additional USB port in the back to charge other wireless devices. Thank you for your feedback and have a great day!

Must have an iPhone 8 to use the wireless charging
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.You my st have an iPhone 8 to use the wireless charging pad. Which was a disappointment.

Posted .The Qi charging capability starts at the manufacturer of the mobile device. Apple did not have that feature in their older phones (Android does). The newer iPhones 8, 8+ and X are compatible. If you have an older iPhone you can purchase a Qi charging case to use with the iBN350. For more information please contact the iHome Support Team at 1-800-288-2792.
doesn't charge right
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Slow at charging my devices. Would not recommend this item.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from iHome
Posted .Thank you for your feedback. It would be helpful if you detailed which devices you are charging, has the case been removed, do you have additional objects on the back of the phone (selfie holder, magnet to connect to your vehicle). All of these factors are things to consider. Also, is your phone Qi charging compatible or are you using a Qi charging case? Please give us a call to discuss.

looks nice
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The clock looks very nice and has a lot of features,but I could not get the Qi charger to work properly.The rest of the features worked great as described,but the wireless charging was way to inconsistent for me.Maybe you will have better luck.

Posted .Not all phones are Qi charging compatible. If you have an iPhone you will need to use a Qi charging case to adapt it to the iBN350.
Too Quiet
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I sleep though the alarm on this thing even when sound is on high. I'm actually a light sleeper too. I'm hoping I can at least use the charging feature. Haven't tried it yet. Sort of disappointed in my purchase after use so far.

Posted .This review is difficult to understand since it is actually possible to wake to maximum volume, which would soon have your neighbors banging at your door. Please contact iHome Support so we can check your alarm settings: 1-800-288-2792
Doesn't work with iPhone
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very disappointing. Expensive alarm clock. I was excited to charge my phone so easily but it's very limited to what type of phone can be charged. I should have returned it.

Posted .Although the iPhone does not have built-in Qi charging, it can be easily adapted by using a Qi charging case.
Not a fan
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was not pleased with it. Settings weren’t user friendly. It failed to wake me up when scheduled. It seemed like settings changed themselves.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendNot what I wanted
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm old school and wanted a radio type with dials (like a tuner) and also cell phone compatible. This was definitely not the right purchase. I returned it.

Not a fan
