## What is Batteries At Home?

Your smoke detector shouldn't have to scream at 3am to remind you it needs a battery. Batteries At Home tells you before it dies — for every gadget that runs on regular batteries, not just the ones with a companion app.

Version 2.0 is a complete rebuild: a new dashboard, room organization, an auto-generated shopping list, support for rechargeable batteries, and a cleaner design throughout.

WHAT'S NEW IN 2.0

Dashboard — One glance tells you what needs attention today, what's coming up, and what's already stocked in your inventory.

Rooms — Group devices by location (kitchen, garage, kids' rooms).

Shopping List — Batteries At Home tells you what to buy before your next store run: "4× AA, 2× CR2032" — generated automatically from your upcoming changes.

Rechargeable Batteries — Track charge cycles for NiMH and other rechargeables alongside disposables, with replacement guidance that accounts for their shorter lifetime per charge.

Device Photos — Attach a photo to a device so you remember which way the battery goes in, or where the tricky screw is, six months later.

Siri & Shortcuts — Ask Siri which devices need batteries, or build automations with the Shortcuts app.

Redesigned Widgets — Small, medium and large widgets now show device icons directly in the battery ring, with a cleaner layout at every size.

CORE FEATURES

- Device Inventory — track every battery-powered gadget in your home: remotes, smoke detectors, toys, and anything in between.
- Smart Predictions — the app learns from your actual change history to predict when a battery will run out, and gets more accurate over time.
- Battery Inventory — keep track of the spare batteries you already own; they're pulled from stock automatically when you log a change.
- Custom Battery Types — beyond AAA, AA, C, D, 9V and coin cells, define your own.
- iCloud Sync — your data follows you across iPhone and iPad.
- Home Screen Widgets — see what's due without opening the app.

FREE VS. POWER USER

Batteries At Home is free to use for up to 3 devices, with all core tracking features included.

Power User unlocks unlimited devices and custom battery types, as a one-time purchase or subscription — whichever fits how you use the app.

Reduce waste, stop digging through drawers for the right battery, and never get caught off guard by a dead remote again.

### 5/5 — Just what was needed!

*2025-04-05*

This is a niche app that I was looking for to track regular alkaline battery life in some of my devices, so that I know proactively when to expect to have to change them. The App interface is clean and easy to  use, battery types can be added as needed, and the developer is very prompt to respond and open to suggestions on improvements. Looking forward to all the updates they have planned.
