## What is iCharging?

Plug in, and your screen comes alive. Checking a battery before you buy a used phone? It lays the data out for you.

iCharging is a two-in-one tool: charging animations plus battery inspection. While you charge, animations and custom sounds keep things lively. When you check your own phone — or a used iPhone before buying — it parses the iOS analytics log and shows cycle count, design capacity, full-charge capacity and health percentage, so you know where you stand.

[Charging animation & sounds]
· A library of charging animations that pop up automatically when you plug in (set up Shortcuts automation once with the in-app guide)
· Custom charging sounds: on plug-in, at full charge, or at any battery level you choose
· Automatic charging records: duration, level changes and charging power for every session, all kept on file

[Battery check & inspection]
· Live charging power (W) in one tap — see at a glance whether fast charging is really working
· Analytics log parsing: battery cycle count, design capacity, full-charge capacity and health percentage
· Check before you buy a used iPhone: battery wear and originality at a glance (figures come from system log parsing, for reference only — not a substitute for professional testing)
· Manually correct capacity and health values to maintain your own battery record when a log is unavailable

[Good to know]
· Charging animations rely on iOS Shortcuts automation. When the screen is locked and off, iOS does not allow third-party animations over the lock screen — that is a system limit, not a bug
· Since iOS 17, iOS reports battery level changes in 5% steps, so the percentage on the animation moves in 5% increments — system behavior
· Battery data is parsed from system analytics logs; what can be read varies by device model and iOS version

[Auto-renewable subscription terms]
- Pro is available as a monthly auto-renewable subscription, or as a one-time lifetime purchase
- Pro unlocks all charging animations and sounds, plus full battery inspection reports
- Subscription fees are charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase
- The subscription renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period
- You can manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple ID account settings after purchase
- Terms of Service: http://suwenclub.cn/apps/chargingscreen/termsofservice.html
