Battery Health - Charge Alarm 4+

Looking for an improvement

I was hoping the app would have an alarm to let us know when the phone has reached a minimum capacity. For example, alarm rings when the battery has reached 10%.

Pretty good, needs improvement

Because of the way iOS handles background tasks, the app has to be open and the alarm "set" for it to go off while the device is charging. There's a setting that implies the charge alarm will better work in the background if you pay, but doing so and switching the toggle for that on didn't make a perceptible difference for me. 🤷‍♀️

You _can_ set up a shortcut/automation task that will do this for you when connecting to a charger, which makes the app worthwhile. Without this, I would find it entirely useless. So props for that! 😁 There are caveats to how well this works, though, unfortunately. It doesn't work if the device isn't unlocked, or the screen is off. It also doesn't take into account volume - not in your device settings or in the app, for the charge alarm.

I can work around almost all of this by being mindful of my habits, _except_ for the volume issue. I really dislike the fact it doesn't honor the settings for this because what happens is the volume defaults to 100%. This _regularly_ scares me when it goes off! 😭 To make matters worse, the system ringer/alarm volume stays maxed out, making _other_ apps' sounds scare me unless I remember to put it back down after the charge session is over. 😱

To the developer: _please,_ improve the shortcut so that it either honors the volume already set in the app, or allow the volume to be set in the shortcut configuration! 🙇‍♀️🥺

Sorry for replying too late but will definitely add switch. You can enable to use existing volume of an iPhone or use default 100% which is currently active.
Thanks for wonderful feedback.

Doesn’t give any useful battery condition information, just displays ads

It says it will give data after 10 minutes of charging with the app open. A half hour later, no data, just ads for cryptocurrency each time you request either of the two available information charts. Just a scam to display advertising. Zero information regarding how bad an old battery is in terms of charge capacity. Completely worthless.

Hello
Sorry for inconvenience.
This app is charging alarm. When your phone’s battery is 100% charge it will notify you by ringtone and notification. Battery states after 10mins of charge is there and will show after sometime when calculation is done but this is not main purpose of the app. Once user buy pro version of the app ads will not show for lifetime. Hope this information helps.
