Ratings and reviews

I like it, but it doesn't work on my phone. It frequently freezes at random values that don't match the current battery level. Other reviews mention the same issue. It's not a battery optimization issue as I have specifically turned that off after reading other comments. I have a stock Samsung S24. As a test I'm running the stock Samsung app and it shows the correct value (64%) while this app froze at 71%. Hopefully the developer can find and fix the bug so I can change my review to 5 stars.

Just the wiget I was looking for. The latest Android update on my Samsung phone may the battery indicator so tiny and dark that I could barely see it and did not pay attention to it. Consequently the day after I have graded my phone hit 3% battery life and shut down because I didn't notice that it needed charging. I installed this widget and put it on the top right hand corner of my home screen where I can clearly see it.

Like someone else said, it's easier to read the widget than the percentage on the phone's notification bar. Would love an option to cycle the different inner text options when clicking on the widget, instead of having to open the configuration settings to change it. Also, how to remove the notification icon and keep the notification panel for the lock screen? It's redundant to have that AND the widget displayed.
