Battery Duo shows the battery of your Apple Watch and your iPhone at the same time on the watch face – one glance at your wrist is enough. 3 IN 1 – SAVES SPACE The outer ring shows the iPhone's battery, the inner ring the watch's, and the middle shows weekday and date. Three pieces of information in just one complication – so the other slots on your watch face stay free for what else matters to you. THIS IS HOW IT LOOKS • Double ring with date: iPhone outside, watch inside (or the other way around), weekday and date in the middle • Numbers with symbol, numbers only, rings or bars – you choose • Colored by level: green, yellow, red – limits freely adjustable • Lightning bolt while charging, gray display when a value is outdated ALWAYS UP TO DATE • The watch regularly fetches the iPhone's battery level in the background • Turbo update: a ready-made Shortcut and a few automations send the value each time you use your iPhone, charge it, or the battery drops below a 5% step NOTIFICATIONS • Watch or iPhone fully charged – time to unplug • Low battery – time to charge • Watch battery as a number on the iPhone app icon EASY TO SET UP • All settings on iPhone and watch – changes apply immediately on both • Complication for round, rectangular and corner slots as well as the text line UNLOCKING Yearly subscription: 3 days free, then €9.99 per year, renews automatically, cancel anytime. Or a one-time purchase of €29.99 for good, no subscription. Both unlock all features: iPhone battery on the watch and in the complication, notifications when full and nearly empty, battery number on the app icon, Turbo update.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: LuCI Mobile at none against Battery Duo's 2. LuCI Mobile also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). Battery Duo's advantage is update cadence (daily vs every 3 weeks). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
