1. Then GSam Battery Monitor to the rescue! • Overlay the stock battery icon with the icon pack add-on. • Sort your app suckers by things such as CPU & sensor usage, app wakelocks, wake time, and kernel wakelocks. • Set a custom time reference to see stats over a certain period of time. • See historical averages for battery life, screen on time, and Doze time - how long does your battery usually last? • Optimized views for Tablets or other devices with large screens. • More accurate time remaining estimates for devices such as tablets with long standby times.
2. Do you simply want to know how much time you have left before you need to recharge?
3. Is your battery draining too quickly?
4. NOTE: Please email me if you encounter any issues with this app.
1. If you change the setting for Gsam to NOT start on boot, and then manually launch it once the phone has finished fully booting, it sometimes worksExtended battery stats don't work without root even with the guide on how to do it (causes a crash) but beyond that, I've been using this battery monitor app forever.
2. One other thing that might be nice to see in a future update, which I haven't found yet, is a little addition to the page showing the application stats, whereby the values are updated every 'n' seconds to show a closer to real-time view of application process/battery usage (really useful for determining what processes might be running hot at a given moment).
3. Not a good sign though that the author isn't responding and how long it's been since this app was updated.Aces. As a root user, the 2 big guns haven't been up to snuff since Android 7.0 (BBS & Wakelock detector).
4. Root & permission granting work great and also has an option to force check for root (handy when updating your rom) which BBS lacks (that app needs to be uninstalled & reinstalled to re-enable root).
5. Lots of useful data contained in its various tabs and main screen that's both highly informative and presents its data so you can easily understand what and how your phone and battery are doing.
6. Unfortunately the author does not respond to queries about the crash with extended stats enabled.This product is not consistent in terms of compatibility with various Android devices.
7. 100% Worth the coffee it costs to go pro and recommended to friends and colleagues.A little ugly on an Android 13 phone, and the author doesn't respond to emails.
8. I have used this app for years and bought the pro version to monitor my battery properly, ever since oem phone makers went to non removable batteries.
9. That was my favorite function because I could set different sounds to know when the battery hit specific moments in charge status.I downloaded GSam to pinpoint a rogue app that was running and draining my battery.
10. Has helped me track down the ever more elusive battery guzzlers in Android that are otherwise hidden behind 10's pretty but useless menus.
11. For as long as I can remember this has been one of the first apps I install on a new phone, and have always really appreciated how great it worked.
