## Description

**Charge Control [ROOT]** helps rooted Android users protect battery health by controlling when charging starts and stops. Set custom charge thresholds, pause charging when the device gets too warm, limit charging current on compatible phones, and trigger a one-time full charge when needed.

The app includes charging statistics, battery and temperature widgets, session history, alerts, trend analysis, estimated capacity, Quick Settings controls, and automatic or manual control-node configuration. Data is stored locally, with optional identifier-free diagnostic reports. Root access is required, and feature availability depends on the charging controls exposed by each device’s kernel. A Premium upgrade removes ads and supports development.

## Review summary

Charge Control \[ROOT\] is a useful app for rooted Android users who want to control battery charging to prolong battery life. Many users appreciate its design and functionality on supported devices. However, numerous complaints focus on its instability and incompatibility with newer Android versions (13 and 14), leading to crashes and failure to limit charging as intended. Additionally, some users report issues with the app not auto-restarting or interfering with phone features. Despite these drawbacks, the app remains valued by users with supported devices and root access.

### Cons

- Issues with auto-start and app termination causing it to stop working unless manually restarted.
- Compatibility issues with certain devices and ROMs like LineageOS, causing charging controls to be overridden.
