Widget for having unified view of the battery status of your connected devices. 

Many cycling enthusiasts have multiple sensors connected to their bicycle computer. Going through the sensor menus to check battery level takes many key presses, this widget will provide status of connected devices on one page.

Wake up your sensors, start widget and it'll display data as it is received from sensors.

ANT+:
- Widget supports Speed, Cadence, Power, Radar, Shifting and Running Dynamics profiles from AntPlus API
- Partial support for LightNetwork devices, please contact me if you see problems with them
- Shows battery status, voltage and device name/model/ANT+ ID of each device (model name results may vary)
- Received data might not be always up-to-date, due to possible issue in AntPlus API. There is open ticket to Garmin about it: https://forums.garmin.com/developer/connect-iq/i/bug-reports/antplus-apis-returning-old-data-in-widget-mode-listeners-behaving-badly

Dual-HR sensor support:

Since it’s not possible to read information from connected Heart Rate devices via AntPlus API directly, workaround for dual-HR devices (ANT+ and BLE) is added. This is not perfect solution, for it to work you must have HR sensor which supports both BLE and ANT+. There are two possible options:
- If you have connected sensor via BLE,  you can add the AntID of your sensor to the App settings (via Garmin mobile app or Garmin express). If you with to disable the feature, set AntID to 0.
- If you have connected sensor via ANT+, you can try using BLE for reading the battery status. For this you need to have device which supports BLE communication, and has at least CIQ 3.2.0 software. If this is the case, you can enable BLE HR scanning in the App settings (via Garmin mobile app or Garmin express). When you start application for the first time, it’ll pair with HR sensor nearby, and from that on connect only to it. If you want to connect to different sensor, you need to disable the feature, sync and start app once, then enable the feature again and sync (a little clumsy way, I know).
