### 4/5 — Accurate, but…

*2021-08-31, version 1.4.6*

Accurate with battery life, but I would much rather have it on the front page.

### 5/5 — Thank you

*2021-07-15, version 1.4.4*

This app was FREE. it did something very simple which all the other battery charge apps DID NOT DO. it SHOWED ME HIW MUCH MY PHONE BATTERY WAS CHARGED.   All the other apps gave me tons of info I Did not need. Just lots of junk but made it difficult for me to see the one thing I wanted from the app. And that is the charge on my phone battery. I was so pleased that I made a donation.

### 5/5 — Excellent Support!

*2021-07-10, version 1.4.4*

I was looking for a small (1 x 1 size) battery percent widget.  Andrew went out of his way to give me a detailed explanation of types of widgets and why what I wanted wasn’t possible.  It’s refreshing to have a developer who is willing to take the time to do such things.  I would be certainly be happy to order other apps from Citrus Apps if I find that they have something  I want.

### 5/5 — Battery check

*2021-06-29, version 1.4.4*

This app easily gives me the status of my phones charge.

### 5/5 — This app may not work when your playing but it is a good game it helps a lot.

*2021-05-31, version 1.4.4*

5 stars

### 5/5 — Very impressive app

*2021-05-07, version 1.4.4*

This is a simple, very useful app that solves a very common problem( at least from my prospective). It lets you see the battery percentage at a glance without opening the phone or straining; as sometimes is the case with me. This is critical if you’re in the middle of using your phone on something that consumes a large amount of the battery. Awesome app!

### 5/5 — Very accurate!

*2021-01-18, version 1.4.4*

Gives plenty of warning when getting low.

### 5/5 — Great app for battery life

*2020-12-30, version 1.4.4*

This is a great app which lets me know how much life is in my battery at any time. Highly recommend.

### 4/5 — Great app

*2020-12-16, version 1.4.4*

In case you are a little new to your phone this app helps you find you battery life really easily,I recommend this app to anyone who is newer to iPhones! Overall great!

### 5/5 — Informative and useful

*2020-12-05, version 1.4.4*

I downloaded thus for my new iPhone 12 Promax. I didn't like not being able to see remaining power in my phone. The app certainly does that plus an extra bonus I wasn't aware of. It tracks battery status on my I watch also. That was a pleasant and great feature. I had a question for the developer and he responded quickly. I tipped the tip fee. I also just our chased the program for my wife's new phone. Certainly am pleased and recommend you consider using this app

### 5/5 — Fiaswim i hate the battery

*2020-12-05, version 1.4.4*

Hi i love this app because all my phone does is die. But when i am listen 🎧 to my music 🎶 my phone will not die in the middle of a song so i can listen to my music all day. And the title means if there were no battery the phone would never die and friend me on roblox my user is Fiaswim!!

### 4/5 — Works as advertised

*2020-11-28, version 1.4.4*

I had a hard time figuring out how the app was supposed to work. But after posting an overly snippy 1st review, one of the developers, Andrew, walked me through my own stupidity.  I wish it allowed a %view while from the closed wall paper screen, but evidently Cupertino doesn’t allow that anymore.  In any case, best app support I’ve received in years.

### 5/5 — Lucy LL

*2020-11-06, version 1.4.3*

I was glad to find a app for a battery percentage rate. My new iPhone doesn’t have to percentage rate for the battery. I prefer seeing the percentage icon to determine if I have enough charge time. 
 I like the option that I can change the color.

### 5/5 — Battery

*2020-10-31*

This thing is horrible. It is hard to tell where battery is. I have an extra battery so the phone one is ok but the extra one is really bad

**Developer response:** Hi johnd92118 and thanks for your review. My App can't read external batteries however it works perfectly on the main internal battery. If you’re still having issues please message me from within the App (Change Icon, Send Feedback etc > Email Developer) I’ll do what I can to assist you.

### 2/5 — Battery Percentage

*2022-08-19, version 1.5.0*

Maybe it’s me but I would like to have my battery percentage on my home page and easy to read. I can’t get this app to make that happen. Perhaps it is user error, but there didn’t seem to be clear instructions on making that happen.

### 2/5 — DISAPPOINTED

*2019-07-03, version 1.3.0*

On the IPhone the app does not show the battery percent directly and it requires the owner to flip back the screen and search for the battery percentage amoung a long list of other items which is not a convenient way to get an accurate battery percentage.
Disappointing.

### 2/5 — Just ok

*2018-07-29, version 1.2.3*

You have to go into Control Panel to see %; you can’t go via app icon as that just gets you the instructions and where to leave evaluation. When you then try and leave evaluation, it says “Unable to connect to iTunes store.”  I am looking for app that has % next to battery icon.

### 3/5 — No longer works on my iPhone XR

*2021-11-23, version 1.4.7*

This has been working but now it doesn’t display any percentage of battery charge.  I hope they fix it since Apple no longer shows battery percentage in iOS 14x.

### 3/5 — Huh?

*2021-07-08, version 1.4.4*

All right I think I’ve installed this app but I’m still not sure give me More more directions than I want to deal with in the beginning I just want to know if my batteries charged or not this little App asked me 100 questions

### 3/5 — Inreliable power reading and opt to kill power hogs In one display

*2021-02-16, version 1.4.4*

Of all the information this I cannot find %battery remaining reliably and i want biggest power hogs and a means to turn them off net to the amt power used perhaps score them green to red for a power hog application.

### 3/5 — Battery pack

*2020-11-07, version 1.4.3*

I need the percent for both the battery pack and phone.

Is it possible to go back to the system I had where it showed both my phone battery and extra battery pack?  I paid good money for the battery pack.

### 3/5 — Home Screen ?

*2020-10-26, version 1.4.3*

The pics show the battery % in large font on the Home Screen. How do I get it to the home screen? 
I have a wireless charger in the car, and I want to be able to touch the screen ans easily see that it is currently charging

### 3/5 — Ugly Font

*2019-10-04, version 1.4.0*

Meh!  It’s just okay.  It doesn’t tell you anything more than the iPhone doesn’t already.  The ability to set the font size is nice for those with vision impairment.  The font style doesn’t follow the iPhone’s system font, so it looks ugly and out of place in widget view.

### 4/5 — Battery

*2022-01-28, version 1.4.12*

This is a good app but I wish it would   read how much of the battery is charged; could be more people friendly. Joy52

### 5/5 — Battery Level

*2024-08-15*

Seems to be reading correctly, allowing me a better means of watching my “battery” level. Never thought it was that big of a deal, battery level, until I didn’t have it any more. Thank you for the “battery level, “K.I.S.S.”, is the best. you can bet that your to keep no no no no no by the ouyrff d h klmhcde try it o lol l i’ll

### 5/5 — Good app! But there is one thing that bothers me

*2023-11-26*

This app is awesome and great for iPods 6 gen and below! But since it only supports iOS 13 or later, I have to use a trick. The trick is to use another device with the same email and download it from that, then go to the apps section and click on my profile and all my app purchases, then download an older version. Other than that, this app is great!

**Developer response:** Unfortunately it gets harder every year to support older iOS versions although I’ve so far been able to make sure the 7th gen iPod Touch is supported. Thanks for taking the time to leave a review and I’m really pleased you’ve found a way to use it on your 6th gen and are enjoying the App.

### 5/5 — Great app!!

*2023-05-31*

It shows your battery percentage on the battery icon. This is how Apple should have designed the icon to work in the first place! Don’t forget to tip the app developer, this is an awesome app!!

### 5/5 — Battery Percent app is great!

*2023-04-11*

I really missed the percent battery charge when Apple changed it so now it’s back with this simple solution and it’s not expensive either!

### 5/5 — Battery Level

### 5/5 — Love seeing battery % all the time!

*2022-05-05, version 1.4.13*

I use battery % more than I use my clock on iPhone! Love it!!!

### 5/5 — Easy and fast

*2022-04-12, version 1.4.13*

It’s a very handy app. I like looking at the exact percentage of what I have for battery life so I can guesstimate when or how soon I will need  the next charge.

### 5/5 — Battery %

*2022-04-10, version 1.4.13*

I downloaded it easily and it is installed. It is just not not showing me the battery %.

### 5/5 — Review

*2021-12-30, version 1.4.11*

Must have data to operate your device’s. This does the job in the best way possible. A must have.

### 5/5 — Nice Job!

*2021-11-07, version 1.4.7*

Nice clean and simple gauge. It has enough control to be able to give a satisfying look for this one for an adequate percentage of charge and condition . Price was right too!
