GentleWatt Battery Life Saver
Stop charging before 100%
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Protect battery health by ending charge early. Local, cloud-free control that stops power before 100%. Requires ESP32 plug with Tasmota 13.0.0+. Detects GentleWatt plugs.
Keep batteries healthier — no tweaks, no cloud. GentleWatt switches the compatible smart plug OFF AUTOMATICALLY before a permanent 100% top-off. Choose your mode — OFF, LOW, MID, or ≈100% — and GentleWatt will cut power in every mode. Your charger won’t sit powered for hours. Perfect for overnight charging, kinder to the battery, and peace of mind for you.
WHY GENTLEWATT?
• Battery-friendly: avoids needless “staying at 100%” — cuts power even near full
• Four clear modes: OFF / LOW / MID / ≈100% for everyday, quick stop, or “almost full”
• Safer overnight: power is disconnected automatically — no guesswork in the morning
• Local & private: runs on your home network, no account, no cloud
• Clear & fast: power/consumption monitoring, pull-to-refresh, badges for status & detection
• Fits your setup: works with the charger you already have
HOW TO USE GENTLEWATT
* Put phone & plug on the same 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi
* Open GentleWatt → start the automatic network scan for compatible plugs — or add by IP
* Tap a mode (e.g., MID or ≈100%) — GentleWatt will cut power fully at the right time
