Hunger meter is so far really simple application to display current and average power consumption of SailfishOS device. It's purpose is to let you know whether changes you did to your device setup are going to help you get better battery life or not (for example which applications doesn't hurt keep running on background and which does).
Currently application is collecting data only when it is running. For long term graphs (issue #5) it would be great to fork out separate process running in the background and collecting data so they would be available even when main application is not running.
When I open the app, something appears on the screen for a moment and then app cover appears. Click on the app cover does the same thing. Looks like something bad happens.
There is also no useful information on the app cover:
Now (1 s):
Avg (10 s):
Avg (24 h):
----- mW
I'd love to see a long term graph, displaying battery status over a longer timespan, e.g. one week or at least since last charge.
This would make it easy to discover facts like "after opening application x, there's constantly a higher decrease in battery level" or "while using application y for 30 minutes yesterday evening, the battery level dropped by 40%".
I think this would make it easier for a lot of users to find out at the first sight where the battery lifetime goes and what they can do to extend it. (Being able to look at the current consumption is great, but does not help too much as long as you do not know a reference value).
By the way: thanks a lot for this great tool, great job :)
while sailfish tells me, my battery is only 36% hungermeter says its 40%. I have the random reboot problem and while the sailfish info jumped crazy (like 24%, 4%, 23%, 7%, 26%,โฆ) hungermeter showed more or less a value which make sense. But if my battery is loaded 100% the current value in hungermeter is higher than the full parameter.
who is more reliable? why there is a difference?
thanks for hunger meter, it is a really nice app and it made a wonderful progress since you released it.
