Ratings and reviews

Horribly blurry UI which looks like a low resolution render on a HD screen. The UI is also a bit of a mess and isn't particularly refined. I've used this app before - briefly on other phones and just recently to compare it to another battery monitoring app and I have to say, this is still pretty poor. I don't have the pro version either, but looking at it doesn't really show any worthwhile extras for mobile users vs that of tablet users. Uninstalled.

Android 13 has broken the battery stats collection. As soon as the adb commands are entered to grant permission the app continuously crashes. Shame as I want to use this to track battery difference on my pixel 6 pro against my experience on Android 12. If you're on Android 12 or lower it works perfectly but cannot recommend its use for Android 13

Uses the most battery from all of my apps (34%) on my galaxy s10+. What is meant to save battery, actually drains the most battery whilst trying to collect a million statistics. However, with advanced permissions, you can find the suspect wakelocks and deal with them. Would recommend to install on an ad hoc basis and not keep it all the time. Just use it for when you feel your battery life has tanked!
