So last night I uploaded a few free apps from the Amazon App Store. One of them is this app called Battery.
So when you open the app, you get a list of how much time you have to do certain things. For example, with 87% of charge currently, I have:
15 hours 31 min of Music Playback
With WiFi, 6:41 Internet browsing
on 3G, 5:24 of talk time
Also,
It will take me 25 mins to fully charge USB, or 16 minutes AC
You can also set custom alerts. Then there’s a graph that shows your usage.
Let’s see how well it works for me. Just wanted to share.

I have Battery Dr Saver, which seems to do the same...if you don't like the one you installed, you can try that one.

Re: Battery App
I don't have a battery app - never really felt the need to have one. Maybe I'll check it out and see if its useful.
Oh, I did learn something new though - I didn't know USB takes longer to charge compared to AC.

Re: Battery App
You don't have to have it CDG. The one thing I really like is to know that if I could get 10 mins of charging time, my phone charge would be complete so I could take a short coffee break for 10 mins if I'm out shopping and sit at a Starbucks. Again, it's really not necessary. It's just an accessory or condiment like you can still enjoy daal chawal without achaar but someone like me got to have the mirchi pickle on the side. Then adding kachumbar salad would be even more awesome. Then adding papaR would be totally awesome. And finishing off with some laddoo would be totally totally awesome. See what I'm sayin'?

Re: Battery App
The best thing about Android is the Widgets you can use on there. Instead of an app that you have to run every time you want to see the percentage left put a widget on the screen, in a corner. So you’re always upto date.
The weather icons on most Android phones are widgets. In the following screen find how many widgets you can spot

On the first screen:
Calendar

Settings
Weather/CLock
On the second screen pretty much all are widgets (except bottom row)

My dad likes the direct dial - he isn’t very techy so he gets lost when he goes to contacts (with all the options).

Re: Battery App
Regarding the coolest widgets, Oh no no, the iPhone people will say: We don't need widgets. We like to simplify our lives. :@:

Re: Battery App
iphone has widgets too, if you swipe down the curtain thingie. mine does weather, calendar, stock quotes, to do list, and a few assorted alerts.
i do like the android calendar widget though. but 90% of other widgets.. just too tacky for my taste.
