Simple Battery Monitor shows remaining time, charge percentage and battery status in a compact menu bar app. * It warns you with an orange arrow icon when some apps consume too much power. * Time remaining adapts to your usage and when some demanding apps start consuming too much power it shows time remaining as if those consuming apps continue to run. * You can view cycle count in the status menu * Notifies when the battery is low and the battery level is critical. * Time remaining is for both charging and discharging. * It shows the estimated time in case of unplugged when it is charging * With new 80%-20% Mode you can be notified when charging reaches 80% and when discharging reaches to 20% battery levels for better battery health.

Battery life indicator

I am now unsure which indicator is correct, the Mac supplied dock reference or this app. The computer interanl Mac reading says I have 82% remaining battery life and rhe app says 78%. Which one is correct?

Developer Response
Thank you for using Simple Battery Monitor. I use a different battery charge computation method. MacOS considers the battery is full when it is actually around 95% full and computes the remaining charge based on this level. I take 100% as the full level and this may result in around 4%-5% difference.

doesn't seem accurate

I like the design, but the percentage is not accurate. Shows 33% while system prefs and bettery medic both show 26%. Computer turned off yesterday when this app was still showing enough that it should have stayed on a while longer.

Thank you for your review. Version 1.6 comes with a few improvements, particularly for Apple Silicon Devices (M1, M2, M3). I hope it fixes the issue.

Time to empty is way off

Kinda nice. But the time to empty keeps showing six minutes since the battery is 100% charged. The only reason I keep the app is because it shows the cycle count of the battery. Other than that, it is no added value.

With version 1.6, the issue for Apple Silicon Devices is fixed. You can try again and please let me know.

I'm glad to say that as of v1.6 this app, which is my favorite of several competing battery charging indicator apps, now works on Apple Silicon. Five stars again!
