5/5Great simple app for monitoring batteries of HomeKit accessories
This app is a new app. It's made by an independent developer. Kudos to the developer for having the idea to make this app. The developer has implemented several cool features in the app. You're actually able to tell the app what kind of battery the devices take and also how many they take. I think the app could use a couple of simple UI fixes and the lifetime subscription of $20 is a bit steep for a simple app like this, but I'll happily pay it since it's not a large company making the app.

3/5Mostly useless
The app itself is well designed and provides great information but I paid for notifications and I haven’t received a single notification about batteries dropping below my set thresholds and double checked all my settings so not sure what is going on but I have had multiple batteries die without warning. Update: Developer reached out to me and suggested to set up a data refresh shortcut and this resulted in me finally receiving a low battery notification. Absolutely ridiculous that this isn’t baked into the app and also isn’t made clear anywhere that these steps are required to make it work. It’s obscured behind a menu item in the app settings. Adding a star just based on the customer service.

5/5The best app for Smart Device Batteries
I have several HomeKit type apps that do many things and some have similar functions to thus app but just a Swiss Army knife doesn’t excel at any one thing, Home batteries is the best app I’ve found for displaying information on my devices and battery states. The new 2.0 update is awesome. Also note it’s not just subscription based there is a low one time lifetime purchase price which is what I’m on board with it. This is for battery trends. Don’t need trends? Just use it a free app!

5/5Amazing update in version 2.x
The number of updated and added features in version 2 made this already useful app even better. It was an instant subscribe for me. I regularly spend more than the annual subscription price on a single drink at a restaurant, and I get far less value from the drink. Thanks for continuing to add useful features to this somewhat niche app!

4/5Notes section?
Thanks for update. Would it be possible to include a Notes section in each accessory, so we can enter the maker of the battery being used? Just want to log which batteries are from Eneloop (Panasonic), Ladda (Ikea), Duracell, Tenergy, etc. Would also like to clear battery log. Is that option hidden? Previous: Thanks for the update with more detailed information! Would be nice if more detailed information is provided after tapping the name of the device—if it’s a camera by Eufy, motion sensor by Hue, etc.

"title": "Great simple app for monitoring batteries of HomeKit accessories",
"body": "This app is a new app. It's made by an independent developer. Kudos to the developer for having the idea to make this app. The developer has implemented several cool features in the app. You're actually able to tell the app what kind of battery the devices take and also how many they take. I think the app could use a couple of simple UI fixes and the lifetime subscription of $20 is a bit steep for a simple app like this, but I'll happily pay it since it's not a large company making the app.",

"title": "Mostly useless",
"body": "The app itself is well designed and provides great information but I paid for notifications and I haven’t received a single notification about batteries dropping below my set thresholds and double checked all my settings so not sure what is going on but I have had multiple batteries die without warning. Update: Developer reached out to me and suggested to set up a data refresh shortcut and this resulted in me finally receiving a low battery notification. Absolutely ridiculous that this isn’t baked into the app and also isn’t made clear anywhere that these steps are required to make it work. It’s obscured behind a menu item in the app settings. Adding a star just based on the customer service.",

"title": "The best app for Smart Device Batteries",
"body": "I have several HomeKit type apps that do many things and some have similar functions to thus app but just a Swiss Army knife doesn’t excel at any one thing, Home batteries is the best app I’ve found for displaying information on my devices and battery states. The new 2.0 update is awesome. Also note it’s not just subscription based there is a low one time lifetime purchase price which is what I’m on board with it. This is for battery trends. Don’t need trends? Just use it a free app!",

I regularly spend more than the annual subscription price on a single drink at a restaurant, and I get far less value from the drink. Thanks for continuing to add useful features to this somewhat niche app!",

"title": "Notes section?",
"body": "Thanks for update. Would it be possible to include a Notes section in each accessory, so we can enter the maker of the battery being used? Just want to log which batteries are from Eneloop (Panasonic), Ladda (Ikea), Duracell, Tenergy, etc. Would also like to clear battery log. Is that option hidden? Previous: Thanks for the update with more detailed information! Would be nice if more detailed information is provided after tapping the name of the device—if it’s a camera by Eufy, motion sensor by Hue, etc.",
