Very handy for visual people

I've been waiting for someone to come out with an app like this. Very handy for those with ADHD or ASD or anyone who has issues with time perception. I could only wish the developer makes another version for timers! Or even an option for this one that will flash the screen when say, you only have 1 minute left on your battery. :) Great job!

Thank you for the feedback! The next update will have option to set custom color for low battery state.

Useful but not polished

This app is super handy. With a 16" intel macbook pro that has a really beefy discrete GPU, I've been struggling with applications that drain my battery even on A/C power, and the ability to see a clear-but-subtle indicator is super helpful and has saved me from accidental shutoffs while gaming because I forgot to plug in my second A/C adapter more than once. Plus, it's super helpful to know if I'm going to make it to the end of a Zoom call I'm taking throughout the house without connecting to power.

That said this doesn't deal with multi-monitor setups very well. You can't pick which display to put it on, or put it on multiple displays. When plugging in to an external display it jumps to a random spot in the middle of the screen and you have to fiddle with one of its settings to get it to snap back to the correct edge. It's always a single color, so you can't have it show a different color when getting close to running out of battery, for example. There's no option for transparency. So I'd ding it one star for the correctness issues like not repositioning correctly on different displays, and one star for some of the obvious features that it seems like it should get.
