The only battery app that does not require a background running permission! Appreciate that!

Iam using instinct 2, there are a few issues when using this app. First the information is blocked by the upper right circle window on the watch. Secondly the i couldnt see the information detail on the bottom screen. Only the 1/2 of it.

Version 3.4
Nice app! As I understand it it does not gather data in the background but at the opening confronts current battery level to the 3 stored moments (start, charge and user set) and calculates those. Would be nice to have additionally a "since last opened", and great would be also last hour and last day, but for these two I guess background data gathering would be required. One small thing additional that I would like would be at least 1 additional decimal, like instead of "0.2/hr" would be nice "0.17/hr" or "0.24/hr", or even 3 decimals, but this is just being nerdy :D

Great widget, but after Toggle View information use only half screen and font too small. Fenix6xPro. Can you fix that?

Version 3.3
Has potential! Would like option to change date format (e.g. mm/dd/yy) and customize what screens to see. The first screen with all 3 options (start, user, charge) is great but the font is super tiny on vivoactive 4S. I like the toggle view to view it bigger, but mainly what i care about is % decrease since last charged, date & time of that last charge, and how much longer my battery will last, which I think is on the second screen only. Anyway - hope to see more customization in future!

Hmmm, you can simply access it with the button though? Will look into it but I disabled it because it somehow interfered with the button handling (resulting in having to press back twice, etc)... but will see if can solve that in a nicer way and bring this back

I too am having problems where I cant exit this app unless I bring up my music control and then exit from that. But I do like the widget and am happy with all except the bug

Version 2.4
Fenix 6Pro Solar. firmware 5.0 Idea is great, but... After Reset and Set Market it was not possible to exit the widget :-( I can see constanly Widget screen without Exit posibility. I waited for 3-5 mins and did exit by long Back button pressing. It's very strange. It's not good. Please fix this bug.

Version 2.2
Since the firmware update 5.10 on Marq devices it is not possible to return to the watch face from the battery monitor. You have to restart the watch.

Sigh... First of all, why don't you try contacting me before leaving a negative review and also... if a firmware update of the watch breaks the widget, why lay blame with the widget right away. Anyway, weird as exiting a widget isn't handled by the code written by the developer, but by the watch itself so not sure what I can do about it... will look into it though.

It seems to me, that the "Start" and "User" indicators do not record charging, so after charging it shows absurdly excessive values and the average consumption also completely out.

Very useful. Maybe inconsistent user field early on. It appears to initially overestimate consumption (if the app computes at every 0.1% drop and the marker was set close to a drop, consumption will be overestimated).

Thanks, concerning inconsistency... True, but not much I can do (it simply measures when launched, but battery level is reported in increments by garmin so it's not continuous. Also, when just charged it takes a long time to deplete for the first bit, then drops faster, then settles down again). So battery reporting from the watch itse;f isn't too consistent either ;)

The fonts even with glasses are so so small, impossible to read Please increase the size so that we can give you a better rating

Version 1.21
This widget is better than other once for battery control. The widget is accurate and all important information there are one page. The last field with version of widget shown bad version "v2.0b" and instead of this verzion information could be better useful, for example for more space between sections.
