About this app

This is the original battery indicator around punch hole cameras, Energy Ring. Beware of dangerous fake Apps.

With the latest update, Energy Ring can glow up when any App/System accesses camera / microphone / GPS, this is courtesy of Access Dots App integration.

Energy Ring + Access Dots = Access Rings!

Adds a configurable Energy Ring around the camera lens indicating current Battery level. Dive into the various configuration options, not only you can quickly glance and get the battery info but, Energy Ring adds an accent to your phone's camera lens.


Got a full charge? The Ring will be a 360 degree wrap around the front camera lens.
Battery depleting? So will the arc of Energy Ring.

Out of the box features:-

✓ Energy Ring can be configured from a width of 1 pixel to a donut thick ring
✓ Energy Ring puts almost 0% load on CPU, as it wakes up only to reflect any change in battery level
✓ Energy Ring's direction can be configured as clockwise/bidirectional/anti-clockwise
✓ Energy Ring can hide on fullscreen content (apps, videos, images, games etc)
✓ Energy Ring can be configured to change colors automatically depending on the live battery level
✓ Energy Ring could have a mono color/multiple color segments/gradient (pro)
✓ You can literally assign any color in the world for your favorite configuration
✓ Energy Ring has a number of cool animations whenever a power source is plugged into your device


All that is cool! But what about Energy Ring consuming Battery?!

This is one of the most exciting question for me to answer. Energy Ring more than anything understands that you need to utilize your battery efficiently (after all, that's why you installed the App, right? ;) .) Energy Ring sits on the screen silently putting almost 0% load on CPU, if battery level changes, Android wakes up Energy Ring. Once awake, Energy Ring quickly updates itself and goes back to sleep. And to be that extra efficient, the Ring goes on deep sleep when you turn off the screen, meaning it doesn't even read changes in battery level when the screen is off.

Accessibility Service Requirement:
Android requires Energy Ring to run as an Accessibility Service, to be able to display on Lock Screen. It does not read/monitor any data, whatsoever. This is especially useful for people who have disability to read numbers and work better with visual data.

No charging animation?
Settings > Accessibility > Visibility enhancements > Remove Animations > uncheck if it's checked.


Energy Ring disappearing on Xiaomi devices?
Setting>Apps>Manage apps>Energy Ring> *Turn on Autostart*

Screen burn-in:
The original variant of the App, Energy Bar has been used over several years by users on their AMOLED devices, there has been no complains. But there is no claim that it may not happen.

Re-enable after exiting power saving mode:
If you enter into power saving mode, Energy Ring will be disabled by the System, to re-activate you must restart your device.

Ratings and reviews

This is a very underrated amazing app that I've been using for about 4 years. I use the Energy Bar version on my tablet. Who wouldn't want to see what the battery range is from a quick glance at a color you set??? It's awesome. And the compatible device list is outdated so don't be afraid to try it. I'm currently on the Galaxy S26 Ultra and it works same as always. Thank you for making this and please keep updating as needed!

Was 5 stars until they changed to a subscription model. Now, you have to watch ads every day to extend the "pro" features. Or, you can fork out $15 a year to have the app work as it's worked for free for years. I would most likely fork out a one time payment, but not a subscription for something so basic. Not sure if I'll keep this moving forward, which is too bad; I like this little app.

Edited: Publisher put out an update to solve this issue promptly!! Have had no other issues! Very disappointed. I use this app all the time. They suddenly decided to update it, where every time you plug your phone it it opens the app and takes you out of whatever you were doing. Then, they placed turning off that setting behind a paywall. Then, when i DID pay to access to that setting, it doesn't even f-ing work!!! Same with ads and other settings that were supposed to be unlocked.
