Battery life is a constant concern for any mobile device user, and even with the awesome battery life some of the newer devices are experiencing, we always want just a little bit more. This new app aims to help you montir your battery life, and to train it over time to be better overall. Simple and straight-forward, the app places a notification icon in your banner with your current battery percentage, color-coded for the amount of battery life you have left. Launching the app itself will provide you with a splash screen that shows your current battery life, temperature, and discharge. After a certain number of charge cycles, the app will prompt you on the best course of action to extend your battery life, then reset itself to count down to the next action. The option to set notifications through the native profiles ensures you'll never forget to charge your battery again, and over time you should see some improvement in the overall life of your battery. The app is available in the CB store for $4.99 for all devices running 4.6 OS and up, and a free trial is available for the first 15 days for those who like to try before they buy.
