SvitloBot Client turns your iPhone into a power availability monitor. It uses the phone’s charging status as an indicator of whether electricity is available. In SvitloBot mode, the app sends a signal to the server about once a minute while your iPhone is charging and connected to the internet. The server detects changes in power status and posts updates to your Telegram channel. This mode requires a SvitloBot channel key. You can also enable an instant signal to the server when the charger is disconnected. Telegram fallback is a backup mode that sends alerts directly through your own Telegram bot when charging stops or resumes. SvitloBot requests are disabled while this mode is active. To set it up, create a bot, add it to your channel, and enter the bot token and channel details in the app. Only one mode can run at a time. For continuous monitoring, keep the app open and your iPhone connected to power and the internet. The screen dims, and auto-lock is disabled. No account is required.
