Battery Grapher 4+

Love It!

I would give the app 5 Stars if it worked on all the devices it is supposed to work. I love this app on my iPhone and iPad, it gives me great insights into my battery health and great metrics to follow as to battery drainage. My experience on my Apple Watch Ultra has been less pleasing. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app twice in four months but I never get an accuracy measurement greater than bad. I don’t charge my watch every night but it can never get the accuracy level to change. Thanks for a good app for the phone and tablet. I wish the app worked as well on the watch.

Good concept but not accurate.

I like the apps design and the purpose of it, but it’s not always accurate. Sometimes you’ll see that the time remaining is waaayyy off. It can be fixed each time by going to the settings and switching the complication from “Hours until 0%” to “Battery %” and then back again. But the fact you have to do this (a few times a day sometimes) takes time I’m not willing to spend. It’s not much time but I can use math in my head to determine how much longer I have left faster. It’s frustrating because I want to love the app but I can’t having to do this extra task. I was really hoping to use this instead of my stock battery complication. I downloaded this the minute the developer announced it on reddit. So it’s not due to the app not having long enough to to calibrate. It actually seemed to get worse as the calibration got “better” according to the app itself.

Hi,

I am sorry that you are having issues with the app complication not updating. This bug occurred with only a few people, making it very hard to debug. This issue should be fixed in the latest update. I hope you can give my app another try!

Thanks,

Helped me @ the Apple Store

I can’t tell how effective Battery Grapher is at predictions, but it certainly helped me at the Apple Store when my battery indicator was acting weirdly. Basically, for hours on end, my watch appeared to be stuck at 100% charge, although I knew it wasn’t. Then it would suddenly plummet into power reserve mode. I took screen shots of the BG graphs and showed them to the person helping me and he immediately grasped the problem. The BG graphs were a close match to the diagnostics the Apple person ran on the watch and they accepted my watch for repair. It was my second attempt at the Apple Store. The first time I didn’t have the BG evidence and I got no satisfaction.

Wow that’s incredible! I am glad that my app was able to help you in such a practical way. I never even imagined that my app could be used for something like that!
