SMART HOME DEVICES AND REVIEWS
Today I am sharing my last installment of my favorite Smart Home devices as part of my partnership with the Home Depot. You can check out my other reviews on the items below if you are interested in learning more.
Today I am sharing my review of the Anker Roav Bolt Car Charger! I actually was a little surprised by how easy this was to use and really liked the functionality of it. Therefore, I think this would be perfect to use in an older car that may not already come equipped with activated voice control of your phone.
My son drives an older car and will probably end up taking this and using it in his car because my car has a little bluetooth capability to begin with! With that introduction, what exactly is the Anker Bolt and what can it do? Today I am going to answer those questions for you!
WHAT IS THE ANKER ROAV BOLT?
The Anker Roav Bolt Car Charger is used to add Google Assistant to your car. Perfect for for voice-controlled navigation, music streaming, playing your texts and phone messages and more, while leaving your hands phone free so you can concentrate on driving.
The Anker Roav Charger also comes with two PowerIQ-equipped charging ports that deliver a higher speed charging power to your devices. The Road Bolt Charger plugs into your car’s cigarette lighter and has two-way speakers that allow you to use voice commands that are simply activated by saying “Hey Google!”
WHAT CAN ANKER ROAV CHARGER DO?
The list of things you can ask your Roav Charger to do is quite long. Basically anything you can ask a Google Home or Google Assistant, through blue tooth technology, the Roav Charger can do through your phone and the downloaded app.
For example you can do the following:
- stream music
- get directions
- make phone calls
- hear messages and texts
- email alerts
- asking google questions
- searching google for restaurants, etc.
- get your appointments and schedule
- get news
- find out the weather
- get updates on traffic
- play specific playlists
HOW TO SET UP YOUR ANKER ROAV BOLT
Setting up your Roav Bolt Charger is so simple! Simply, follow these 3 steps to pair your Bolt with your device via bluetooth. Apparently Android devices reportedly work the best with this device.
There have been some reports of less functionality if you are using an iPhone or iOS device. So you might want to take that into consideration before purchasing this for yourself.
- Plug the Bolt charger into the cigarette lighter in your car and start the car engine so it powers on.
- Enable Bluetooth on your iPhone and connect it to the Bolt charger.
- Install the Google Assistant app which can be found in the app store. Then tap the setup card to initiate the setup. Simply follow the prompts to get it set up completely!
WHERE CAN I BUY THE ROAV BOLT CHARGER?
The Anker Bolt can be purchased at your local Home Depot or online from Home Depot! I think this would make a great gift idea for someone on your gift list this holiday season!
