Quicker Charges
abahog
First, I noticed the quicker charging times. Secondly, I don’t like the notification sound after screen closing. And thirdly, I wish it would not fully charge but stagger the levels between 80% to 98% with only one 100% charge each month.
Auto lock

Great app but it would be great if auto lock work , because I always forget to lock my phone
IOS 13 problem
S E N I O R
I’ve been using this app till I updated to IOS 13. It used to work fine on IOS 12 but now it doesn’t work when I lock the screen. Regards
New iOS 13 update

With the new update the app now automatically goes into the background when you lock the phone which means the alarm won’t go off. Are you going to fix this? It worked wonderfully before this new update. I didn’t mind having to keep the app in the foreground to have the alarm work but now I have to keep the screen on while my phones charging and I don’t want to have to do that. Please fix this.
IOS update 13.1.2 Puts app in background when locking iPhone XR

Until Apple put out its last update this app worked fine. I could turn on the alarm, keep the app active and lock my iPhone XR. When the battery reached 100% the alarm sounded. Never a problem until update 13.1.2 Now, as soon as the phone locks, the app is automatically put into the background and I get the banner saying the app won’t work in the background. I unlock the phone and sure enough the app is is the background even though I had left it full screen active. This isn’t the apps fault but if the developer can get this fixed it would be much appreciated.
Useful But Intrusiveness
Mercadogs
I don’t understand why the app is not allowed to function when it is not active. The alarm did not work when I locked my phone and waited for it to charge at set limit. But even if it did work on locked phone, it appears that as soon as you play some music, or do something else while the phone is locked, the alarm will not sound. Therefore, if I must change what a normally do, like listen to music while screen is locked, just to get the functionality of a charge alarm, then an intruder (this app) has entered my life! I will will likely delete this app from my phone.
OK, does its job

Added: Alarm comes - but no sound ... . Not sure if since last iOS update. Bummer. Old review: Can't work in background or if on lock screen - that's OK since probably Apple does not allow differently. I can't change the alarm tone - probably would need the Pro; fine. Alltogether I like it. Particularly since one uses it to avoid overcharging, it is good that it keeps the screen on and does not allow the phone to go into auto-lock. It's problematic when your phone is stolen then, though. Good is, that this delays/slows charging - all in line with the apps purpose. Great would be if the app could change the phone out of low-energy mode. ???

the alarm doesn't work and whenever you're out of the app it doesn't work which i think is total BS
