When my device is above the Critical/Low Battery Levels, you should add a Green badge!! When my device is recharging, you should change the badge color to orange!! When my device is fully recharged, you should display a white badge!! Also add a Semi-Low Battery Level. When it drops below the specified percent, it should change the badge color to cornflower blue [RGB 0: 159: 255]! Please add a Semi-Low battery notification with the audio alert sound as the Windows Longhorn Ding!!

The badge is Yellow when my battery is low! The badge is Red when my battery is extremely low!!

Great idea. Hopefully it'll live up two expectations. I need an app like this!
