Any case with a significant ridge on the back will not support power share. UAG Monarch cases don't work with power share. If it's a feature you want or need you will have to consider a thinner case
 
Yes, I own the S10+ and UAG Monarch case. It doesn't support power share. When I swap out the case for a thinner case or no case at all power share works.
Are you stating this from personal user experience?

Thanks. I have been looking at the UAG Plasma. Guess I'll rethink the UAG line.
 
My 2 I-Blason cases came yesterday and my husband got a Spigen Neo-Hybrid hope we don't have any problems. Waiting for phones still :-(

I am in the same boat, at this point I don't think it is a deal breaker for me though, as I am pretty damn brand loyal to UAG.

Tried it last night with Spigen Tough Armor case and it worked both with my wife's Galaxy S9 and my daughter's iPhone 8. Both had cases as well. Haven't tried it yet with my Supcase Unicorn Beatle but will post results when I do (have a feeling this one may be a bit too thick).

My husband got the Neo-Hybrid and I have 2 cases by I-blason also. But we have no phones to try them out with yet. :-(
 
Reverse Powershare wouldn't charge my Gear S3 Frontier with the Speck Presidio Grip case, but it did work with the Spigen Ultra Hybrid and Spigen Neo Hybrid cases.
 
Yes my watch worked on my husbands phone with his Neo-Hybrid and so did my S9 Plus

UAG Pathfinder here. Wireless powershare works perfectly. The monarch has a much greater padding on the backplate which could be why it doesn't work.

I got the UAG Plasma Ice and yeah the PowerShare charging is a hit or miss. It's definitely not a deal breaker though and there is a workaround. The Galaxy buds for example, do not charge right away when placed on the case, but if you press them against the case with a little pressure and they start charging, you can let go and it works absolutely fine after. Didn't need to do anything of that sort to charge an iPhone or my Moto 360 however.
 
I tried to charge my wife's GS9+ which has Defender case with the Defender Pro on my GS10+ only very briefly. No joy. I removed the Defender Pro and installed the Pelican Shield which I will test out. Not surprised that it's difficult with the Defender as it would have to go through six layers between the two devices with such low wattage.
 
So I tested my case with powershare last night with my new buds and IT WORKS!! My case is Caseology Parallax.
