    I don't have the 6plus, but I do have the 6 (same size as previous poster) with the Spigen. It works great. I put it in the bottom left (from my perspective) of the pad. Basically the earpiece as close to the drivers side as possible, and as close to the cupholders as possible. It never slides off and charges every time.

    i wonder if the problem with the 6plus is related to the bigger batter, much like those with the larger android phones are experiencing.

    What's the charge rate with the case on the iphone6/6plus? I rarely charge my phone anywhere but home and when I need to I use USB in all its slowness.

    It is closest to the driver side, but yeah, facing the passenger door. Meaning the home button is closest to the steering wheel

    I have the 6s plus with a spigen case. It works for me if I have my phone right up against the bottom right corner. That is the only spot that consistently works for me. If that doesn't work I'd try exchanging the case for a new one to see if the case is the issue.

    When you say bottom right, do you mean closest to the front right wheel?

    I dont really have as big of an issue that these other guys are having, mine freaks out for a few minutes sometimes. I'd say 85% of the time it's good to go

    That's what I read and that's where I put it but the connection is inconsistent: sometimes it's solid and other times cuts in and out.

    Your case might be defective then. I'd try exchanging it.

    My Note 5 charges best if I have it on the Driver's side of the pad, not the passenger side. I also slide it up flush against the lip (toward the rear of the truck)...essentially the phone is as close to driver as possible in the pad.

    Ok question: Does the green light ever come on for you when the phone gets fully charged? I have yet to see it. My iPhone charges just fine and the yellow light indicator works fine too. But, the owner's Manuel says there is a green light next to the yellow light that is to come on when fully charged. I've yet to encounter this.

    Mine doesn't either. I think it is because thr iPhone uses a case, rather then having the charger built in.

    I put a charge pad in my S5, it works out of the phone case, but in the phone case it will not charge.

    Different phone, different charger, but yes. It does get quite warm yet not enough to auto shut off or damage the battery

    I had the same issue with my home charger in a otter box until I placed the charge pad between the hard case and the rubber seal. Try that. Still waiting for my 40k mobile charger for a real world test
