User Reviews

Overall mixed sentiment: the app is praised for its simple, useful charging alerts and works for some users when kept in the foreground. The major recurring drawbacks are iOS background restrictions that prevent reliable alarms when the phone is locked, plus occasional failures after updates. A few users note a workaround via iOS Shortcuts/Automation, but reliability remains inconsistent.

Pros

Generally positive reception; described as a simple, useful battery charging alert app.
Works when kept in the foreground, for users who keep the app active on screen.
Supports iOS Shortcuts/Automation as a workaround to monitor charge and trigger alerts.

Cons

Does not run in the background; requires the app to stay on screen, limiting multitasking and causing alarms to fail when the phone is locked.
Alarm is not reliably triggered at the set percentage, especially when the device is locked or the app is not active.
Recent iOS updates/restrictions have broken or degraded background functionality for some users.
The set alarm level can be forgotten or reset between uses.
