ChargeGeek: Charging Speed

Geeky Applications

About this app

Every charge has a curve. ChargeGeek lets you explore it.

ChargeGeek is a free charging speed and battery monitor for understanding charging performance in detail. Follow charging power, charging current, voltage and temperature in real time. Use the live charge meter to watch your battery charge level, or record complete sessions to examine charging speed and compare chargers or cables under similar conditions.

LIVE CHARGING MONITOR
• Monitor battery-side charging power in watts, charging current in amps, voltage and battery temperature.
• Watch real-time graphs grow as your device charges.
• Follow battery charge level, elapsed time, estimated finish time, power source and energy gained.
• See whether your device reports wired, USB, wireless or dock charging.

CHARGER TESTER AND SESSION ANALYSIS
• Record complete charging sessions automatically or start and stop them manually.
• Review duration, battery gain, energy gained, average measurements and recorded ranges.
• Compare sustained charge speed using 1-minute, 5-minute and 15-minute peak power.
• Scrub interactive graphs to inspect power, current, voltage, temperature, battery level and screen-on state at any moment.
• Examine every reading captured during a session.

Use ChargeGeek as a battery-side charger tester to compare charge speed across different chargers and cables. For a meaningful charger check, compare sessions recorded at similar battery levels and temperatures.

CHARGING HISTORY AND INSIGHTS
• Browse previous sessions and filter them by wired, USB, wireless or dock power.
• Explore average charging power and temperature across battery levels over the last 24 hours, 7 days or 30 days.
• Use the power heatmap to see how historical charging performance varies with battery level and temperature.
• Look for patterns such as reduced power at higher temperatures, while remembering that a graph shows correlation rather than the cause.

AUTOMATIC RECORDING AND CONTROL
• Start recording automatically when battery charging begins, or receive a notification that lets you decide.
• Choose a sampling interval from 1 to 60 seconds.
• Automatically remove older sessions after your selected retention period, or keep them indefinitely.

EXPORT AND SHARE
• Export raw measurements as a TSV file for analysis in a spreadsheet.
• Generate and share a formatted chart image summarizing a charging session.

BATTERY HEALTH AND DEVICE INFORMATION
View Android’s reported battery health status, charging source, battery chemistry and supported sensor readings. On compatible devices, ChargeGeek can also display state of health, cycle count, capacity level and remaining-energy information. The compatibility screen shows which readings your device provides.

Choose Celsius or Fahrenheit and use the system, light or dark theme.

IMPORTANT MEASUREMENT INFORMATION
ChargeGeek uses Android’s BatteryManager APIs and readings exposed by your device. Availability and accuracy vary by phone and manufacturer. Like any software charging meter, ChargeGeek reports battery-side measurements rather than wall output or a charger’s maximum rated capability. Conversion losses and power used by the device mean battery-side readings will be lower than the power flowing into the device.

ChargeGeek cannot override Android’s charging controls or make a device charge faster, but it can help you understand and optimize your charging setup.

Free with no ads. ChargeGeek is a work in progress, and feedback and suggestions are gratefully received.
