Upgrade to Battery Snap Xtra! to eliminate all advertisements, receive alerts for high or low battery levels, have the battery status elegantly shown in the notification bar, and access additional widget styles!

Note: If you are using an Android device with a "battery saver" feature, or if you're on Android 6.0 or higher, you might notice some unexpected flat sections in the graphs. This happens because "BatterySnap" is restricted from recording battery events while the phone is idle. To avoid this issue, set an exception for "Battery Snap" within your aggressive battery-saving settings.

Battery Therapist: How Battery Snap Became My Digital Lifeline

That frantic "5%" warning used to strike panic—until Battery Snap transformed my phone from a ticking time bomb into a predictable companion. What began as a simple widget evolved into a revelation: watching my partner’s battery plummet during her commute meant I could preemptively send "Charge at next station!" texts, rescuing stranded calls. The global comparison feature exposed my aging phone’s decay ("You’re in the bottom 15% for battery health"), finally pushing me to replace it. But the true magic lives in the lock screen widget—a real-time power EKG glowing beside the time. Seeing my iPad’s voltage dip during gaming sessions taught me to tweak settings before crashes, while tracking my AirPods’ charge cycles revealed exactly when to expect silence.

The app’s elegance lies in its obsessive detail. Customizable graphs showed my phone’s temperature spiking during video calls—explaining lag. Monthly usage charts exposed Instagram as my battery vampire, leading to ruthless app culling. For road trips, grouping family devices revealed whose phone would die first (sorry, Dad). And yes—the hypnotic real-time discharge animations make even a dying battery feel like art.

Upgrading to Xtra silenced ads and added critical alerts: now my watch buzzes when my laptop dips below 20%, saving work disasters. This isn’t just monitoring; it’s relationship therapyfor your gadgets.

Xtra worth it?

If you live by battery anxiety: absolutely. Low/high alerts + status bar icons prevent 80% of "sudden death" panic. Ad removal is bliss.
