## Description

Charge is a simple, elegant way to monitor your iPhone's battery life from your Apple Watch. It shows remaining charge, charging status, and whether the iPhone is connected to Wi-Fi with a quick swipe.

Never miss an update again—if your iPhone is paired with your Apple Watch, you can check its battery from your wrist, saving trips to grab the device.

## Review summary

Users praise the app for its simplicity and its core feature—viewing the iPhone’s battery on the Apple Watch at a glance—and for being free. However, multiple reviews point to it no longer working due to outdated compatibility and lack of updates. The most common requests are for watchOS complications, support for AirPods/other devices, and configurable charging alerts (e.g., at 80% or 100%), suggesting it’s currently unusable for many on newer systems.

### Pros

- Simple, elegant, and easy to use.
- Shows the iPhone battery level on Apple Watch at a glance.
- Helpful for monitoring charging status and reducing the need to constantly check the phone.
- Free to use.

### Cons

- Outdated and incompatible with current iOS/watchOS versions; many users report it no longer works and lacks updates.
- No support for watch face complications.
- Does not show AirPods or Apple Battery Case batteries.
- Lacks configurable charging alerts (e.g., notify at 80% or 100%).
