| 2024-12-16 |  | | ... The APPs widget constantly keeps freezing up, so I found another battery widget! |
| 2024-10-21 |  | | After the update, the widget's covered with some kind of arrow like press a play button. I can't see the battery percentage that is why need to uninstall and find another widget or app like this. Can no longer see how much battery left because of that unnecessary arrow. 😏 |
| 2024-10-12 |  | | Pretty upset - I even paid for the upgrade and it won't show the charge correctly on the home screen, just as someone else said!! Also never get an answer from emails. |
| 2024-09-21 |  | | Why does it require cellular reception in order to work correctly. The latest version must have some back end of issue because when out of service the app clouds out with a big pointer in the middle like in order to play a video |
| 2022-08-02 |  | | I love this app and have been using it for at least 5 years because it tells you how your battery is being used and in real-time how either fast is being charged which is not the best way but a good guideline but definitely how much you're losing when idle or throughout the day so you can get a grip on if it's overheating and needs to cool down or if you are been using it at a certain time of day and wondering why it died you can pinpoint kind of at least what was going on with that time so it's |
| 2022-07-29 |  | | I've had this widget on every galaxy since S8. Worked perfectly. Now the S21, It was a sad moment just now to uninstall it. It is an old friend. I wish my s21 will cooperate with him... but I give up. Too often goes nuts. Hate to see my old friend all wrong on its percentage, on the occasions it is able to display its widget as more than a plain white square. I will miss you Guage :'( 5 stars for your years of flawless perfection. |
| 2022-07-07 |  | | Android system sent battery usage optimize warning for this app ( installed it only hrs as go ? ). Upon checking the process mgr, found that Gauge Battery Widget 2021 had spawned 6 process and 1 service, using up some 450 to 500MB of memory, running to support its widget. Philosophical question I leave with is why so busy doing what ? |
| 2022-01-30 |  | | I should mention to potential users, it's better to drain your device completely while this app is installed, it'll better gauge how much battery life your device has when you're close to 5% or below. I've been using this app since the early beta days, before premium was created, before they enabled ads, and I have had nothing but the best experience. I have gotten my money's worth buying the premium, across all devices, and I wish nothing but success to all developers of this product! |
| 2021-06-25 |  | | Nice looking widget! Too bad it doesn't show the correct battery percentage! Shows 33% all the time. And I used all the widgets available. Tried writing to author as mentioned and they would fix it, but none of the websites or faq sites work. So, I have no choice but to give it 1 star! If they fix it, I'll try again since it is a very nice looking bunch of widgets and compliment my home page! |
| 2021-06-15 |  | | This is perfect for my needs. I cannot find any issues. It's accurate on my phone and doesn't drain the battery. Also the ads are very moderate, they don't bother me and I realize they're necessary. A+ |
