Ratings and reviews

Great app! Extremely small detail, but when choosing 'colour levels according to battery level' for the widget, I tried choosing one at 49%, but it jumps from 48 to 50 and not in between. People may also enjoy an option to change the line type of the circle on the widget. Right now the ends of the lines of the circle are squared, but it would be cool to have an option to have them end in a circular or triangular (therefore pointed) shape, too. Just pls don't lock them behind premium. Thanks :)

While the Widget on my home screen shows me the battery level, opening it further it doesn't access further data such as projected battery life, but only the configuration options. A separate icon on your home screen opens the App to then show battery level history, projected life, typical discharge and charge rates. (It does usually show a graph in Notifications.) It would be great if by opening the widget you could jump to all of that.

This App covers more than simply the battery usage and is easy to read and is a must have for every mobile phone user. I do not know whether other apps give a warning message that the battery should be recharged at a given percentage left, but this would be fantastic to ensure that if I fail to look up the usage on a day when it needs to be charged a reminder is sent.
