Does this charger work with an otterbox the phone? So got an otterbox, and I was wondering if this charger works with an otterbox on the phone?

Just look on Amazon. Battery's are CHEAP! It's pretty simple to replace a battery in the 4 or 4S. 2 tiny screws the back cover comes off and the battery is right there!!! Come of these battery's come with a little tool set so you have everything you need. $6 for the battery and tools, it might cost more in shipping, so watch that. Hell if you go to a Apple store, they'll more then likely replace it for you for FREE! As for the Switchway working with the Otterbox, I don't know. I don't use a case on my iphone4! If it's thin on the bottom it might work. Maybe with some slight Modifications to the case you can get it to work with the Switchway.

I never tried it with an Otterbox so don't if it would work. As for alignment, I usually centered the phone on it and it always charged. Maybe how you set the phone on it could have something to do the alignment or sensitivity of the charging system in the phone.

I use my cell phone charger. I have Motorola Droid Razr & the charger for it works with this.

I would agree with the other posters. I had one case that didn't fit, and just found one that does, but neither is as substantial as the Otterbox cases. The one that fits is the STM Skinny case. With or without a case, this charger requires a bit of finesse to use, but it's so handy for multiple devices that I don't mind the minor hassle.

I use it with my Galaxy S5 mounted in the Otterbox Defender case. Charging is solid and consistent as long as I ensure the back of the phone is seated against the charging mount. I then have no problems charging, even on bumpy dirt roads. If the case were any thicker, though, I can see that charging might be intermittent.I have a Choe aftermarket receiver mounted in the S5, and it's possible that different receivers may give different results. I am VERY happy with this.

yes. and charging with the Everready Qi charger works fine through the otterbox case. you will never notice that the receiver makes a difference in the phone.

No. The life proof cases don't fit with this charger. The smaller otterboxes are about as big as you can go.

I put it on my Galaxy S3 with a TPU case and it works great. I also put it on my Nexus 5 with a TPU case and no problems charging. I love this charger. I did get a holder for it though so i can line it up right. (Few times had issues lining it up right all night).

Karl, I would check with the OtterBox website to verify which model works with your phone.

the charger itself works fine...the "free" cable that came with it did not work at. i've used it with multiple phones and the charger itself works with any charger cable that uses a usb port attachment.

I have used mine with the Defender case and my wife has used hers with some really thick cases, the only thing that happens is the position of the phone on the charger becomes a little more stringent.

no the phone will not fit on the charger with the otter box on :( I have a slim case on my Note 3 and it won't fit either.

it would not work with mine. I complained about the charger and AMAZON ignored. Im an avid AMAZON buyer and overall they are a great company. But to answer your question the charger will not work.

I do have a case on my phone and it works great. The way this case is made it has a cover that goes over the front of phone so it will not get scatched and the back is the regular back on the phone but it is all one piece. It looks like a book.anyway this will slide into the charger and it works great. Hope this helps. I think the other covers will not work with charger because it is a snug fit.

Depending on the model, doesn't the Otterbox already have a protective screen? If so, I would guess not. If your model doesn't, then it should work. I use the Ringke Slim and it works, as would bumper models.

It won't work with an iPhone 6 Defender case -- I just found that out tonight when I went to charge my brand new phone. I have six of these for our iPhone 5 phones. :-( It's a great cable, though, if you don't have iPhone 6 Otterbox Defender -- I was very pleased with them.

I'm quite sure that it will work with an Otterbox. The arms that clamp in from the sides open very wide - several inches wider than the iPhone - and then clamp together to whatever width you wish. The height is essentially unlimited. The bottom of the device has two fingers which swivel to allow a cord to be plugged in for charging. My case is an Acase and it works fine.
