Ratings and reviews

April 2019: This has been a very reliable battery monitor for me on many devices over years. Now, new device, the "charger unplugged" time shown in the app resets from time to time Update December 2019: That device has just updated to Android 10. Now, the widget and the app both show the battery percentage stuck on whatever it was when the app first started. The only way to get it to show a new percentage is to force-close it, but then it's stuck on the battery level at the time you did that. Update February 2020: The app has now been updated, and works properly with Android 10. Thank you Tomas

This has been a great app... It's so much easier for me to see than the one in the notification bar... I like that it's customizable... I think it's great you can customize colors to better work with any background... The only setback for me is... I wish it would change from "percent left" to "estamated time to fully charged"...

So I've had this app for a few years now, and my main issue with the app is that every few days, the icon in the notification bar just disappears, for no reason. Which I have to go back into the app to get it to reappear. Super annoying after all of this time & I bought the Pro Version because I liked it so much.
