Leave a Review Amperes Battery Charging Lite
Sketchy full screen ads
During the first test the screen was taken over by a predatory ad that tries to deceive you into thinking it’s part of the app. There was no apparent way to close it so I just uninstalled the app. 🤷ændrü

Hello. When you first install and run the app, we show you warning screen that display information regarding iOS 17-18 testing. We do not show any ads. Ads are shown only when you start testing.Sketchy full screen ads
In the first few minutes the full screen was taken over by a predatory ad that deceives you into thinking it’s part of the app. There was no apparent way to close it so I just uninstalled the app. 🤷Ads make it useless
More interest in generating ad revenue than information. Ads are difficult to close. You think you’re closing an ad and instead taken to a screen where can but the product or service.Bob’s the name

Sorry about the ads, but these are not in our hands. Google provides these. We do not overflow our app with ads like our competitors. There, every switch from screen to screen you get new ad show. We show only 1-2 ads per 10 minute test. Regards, AndreLove it
Very useful when trying to find out if you phone is overheating or not and also much other uses like comparing chargersSuh.M09
Rubbish…deleted app
Firstly it refused to do a test on ‘Compare Wiees or Chargers’ and the app reported it will only work if the phone is at 90% or lower, well it was at 71%.
Again the over power test wouldn’t work because it says the test would only work if the phone is at 75% or lower. Again it was at 72%.
It also reported when I finally managed to get it to test something, said the wattage was low at 4.2watt but it’s on a 96watt charger with a 100watt cable.
Useless, deleted the app and looking elsewhere. I suggest you do the same.Show lessNickH_

Thank you for your review. It looks like you are on IOS 17, where Apple made many changes to battery access. One of these changes - apps now can not know for sure what is the battery charge at.... Apple's iOS will return the same result for 72% and 71% and 70%, and even 69%... Add to this that it removed any direct access to any other battery info in iOS 10. We try to get information as precise as possible, even when we surrounded from all sides by Apple's limitations. For now, please try to test your phone when its discharged well below regular requirements of 70%, that was for non iOS 17 devices. Feel free to email me at support@criosoft.com if you need some more info. Regards, AndreGood but could be improved!
It monitors the charging rate of your phone so you can compare different chargers, leads, etc. Tests performed over a minute or two it takes for the battery to increase in charge level by at least 2%. Like 53% to 55%.
Results reported in milliamperes but does NOT use the conventional abbreviation of mA but for some unknown reason displays MAMP. That does not inspire confidence.
I think it estimates the charge rate by change in charge percentage reported by the iPhone, the specification of the battery capacity, and the time taken. So okay for comparisons of leads etc but maybe not good as an absolute reading. Also gives WATT value as it knows the battery voltage.
Again unconventional in that the units MAMP and WATT are displayed before and not AFTER the readings!
Keeps a record of test results and you can name them which is useful.Show lessAndy T8
Useless !
Practically unusable, apart from waking you up throughout the night by a jingle advertising some pathetic game that can't be turned off unless of course you pay money due that privilege. Absolute waste of space so I recommend you give this App a big miss !
Update;
iPhone ShortCuts" App provides an easy and fully working solution under "automation" a no fuss set-up and full charge is quietly notified once by Siri and all free.Show lesshelpubuild

Hello, if you are running iOS 17, then it would explain your frustration. Right now there is an issue with iOS 17. Charging information that we get from iOS is wrong. So far we diagnosed it to be Apple change in iOS 17, that now reports charging events only in increments of approximations of 5% instead of 1% as it used to in all previous versions. We opened ticket with them, but we have no way of predicting the resolution time as a result. I hope, they will agree to fix it. Otherwise, they will completely damage the battery testing capabilities of all battery testing apps on IOS . Regards, AndreHad to shut two of my debit cards down
As soon as I open the app it’s a ad that I can’t tell is really a add until my bank calls me telling me it’s porn and dating escorts. Yeah if you want to wait in new debit cards and be a victim of fraud. Luckily both banks caught it.Gold One Da DON

We do not have ads when you open the app. Only ads we show when tests are executed. I feel you either posted this review to the wrong app or its a fake review to get down the app's rating. It was reported to Apple.Not satisfied
I wanted to see what the amps are when charging the battery but that's not possible in this app. Why give a name that does not correspond to the real?Alex2023-7
Developer Response
Hello. That’s exactly what this app does. It does show it In milliamperes, which you can change into amps by dividing the value by 1000. It does not show you the output of your charger block, but rather how much of that output is coming into the device battery. Feel free to email me at support@criosoft.com if you have any questions. Regards, AndreWeak
does not inform me when the battery is charged, e.g. 80%Cłem
Developer Response
Thank you for your review. In order for the app to inform you, it must be open and the screen unlocked. It used to work with the locked screen as well, but in order to minimize the battery discharge by background apps, Apple removed this mode from current iOS versions. Regards, Andre
