Remote Battery Level for Watch 4+

This app just works, I never have any problems with it. All I need to do is put up a glance and I can see my phone battery level and connectivity status.
Very handy, I hope they release a complication for both phone battery and connectivity for WatchOS 2.

Battery-Phone is the best app at doing what this is and it’s totally free!! Was shocked to see yet another super simple app has fallen into the pit of greed that expects us to fork out on a regular basis for simple stuff that Siri usually knows or our systems do a better job of. The complications here aren’t much different to battery phones either. The app is now on its way to the trash can and will never be downloaded again - Apple need to give the AppStore a toggle so we can hide all apps that require subscriptions. Apart from their own of course lol avoid this one and get the free or if you have money I suggest Battery Grapher as that does quite a bit in gathering usage stats and giving you an approximate time left level which can also be toggled to a more traditional percentage level. Battery Grapher gets better the longer you have it as well plus the graphs are kinda slick with nice widgets for all your devices - money well spent & spent once unlike here where they bleed you on a regular basis…vampire bats 🦇

This app falls so short in every way possible to the free BatteryPhone.

The latter actually gives you the regular alerts you set for both your phone AND watch battery levels: because some of us want to know when we can put our watches back on, once they have charged.

BatteryPhone has many, many more complications than this one, which show you both phone, and watch, battery in the same complication slot.

The fact that I have now been asked to update my version of this app — and shoot myself in the foot — by now having to pay a subscription, for functionality that I currently have as standard, is absolutely farcical.

So then, with this review — a word of advice: automatic updates are not your friend, for this reason, to say the least. Go to settings, and turn automatic updates off. That way, also, you get to read about all the new features of an app before you install them!

Or — as in this case — by turning off automatic updates, you get to read about all the new features that are about to screw you over — prompting you to make a mental note so that you should never update the app ever again — before making an iTunes backup of your phone just in case you ever mistakenly do update it: hey presto! Can downdate yourself back to a time where you can enjoy life — without a searing hole in either foot.
