Works...but doesn’t work. – Battery⁺ Review
Here’s what I’ve noticed after a few days of use:
1) It does display the battery percentage of my iPhone on my watch, but for the most part it doesn’t update the battery percentage until I click the complication icon (and I have mine set to update every 30 minutes which is the most frequent setting). This basically defeats the purpose of the app in my opinion.
2) You have the ability to choose from 3 different complication icons, but if I go into the settings and try to switch from one icon to another, the icon does not always change on the watch face. This is especially the case when switching from one watch face to another.
3) The notifications for low battery or fully charged battery don’t work. And when they do work they are way off. For example, I disconnected my fully charged iPhone from its charger at 5:30am this morning and received a notification on my watch at 11:30am saying my phone was fully charged. Not only had I not charged my phone again between 5:30-11:30, but my battery percentage was at 87% when the app claimed it to be at 100%.
All-in-all, I am very disappointed with this app and even more so at the fact that Apple allows the developer to charge people money for an app that does not perform as advertised. Hopefully it will improve thru updates but I’m not very optimistic.
