With every new operating system launch comes the unfortunate demise of some Google apps that will fail to catch up with new updates. Good news, however, is that BetterBatteryStats will not be one of them as they launch an update with Android 6.0 Marshmallow support for their version 2.1.
This is good news for Nexus owners that have already received the upgrade for Android 6.0, as this will reduce the headache of having to worry about batteries draining prematurely or halfway through the day, Android Headlines suggests.
The Google application BetterBatteryStats is a paid program for Android users that gives detailed information about what's actually draining the user's phone battery, and thus telling them which one should be terminated for the time being to keep the phone battery alive. Another vital feature would be the given data on the effect of wakelocks in action by viewing the phone's state information, says HowtoGeek.
BetterBatteryStats has been somewhat of a saviour to those Android fans that obsess over preserving battery all throughout the day. The app has been proven useful to people who need to make important presentations in the afternoon, travelling long distance with no access to power plugs, nightlifers who are planning a whole night out and many more.
The app's Google play account shows the following updates it has made:
v2.1.0.0
- Android Marshmallow Support
- New Artwork
- New responsive widget
- Optimized legacy widgets
- New version of the system app
- Numerous bugfixes
- Specific parser for LG G3 kernel wakelocks
The app update has also been proven to be even more on-time for folks with custom ROMs that have not yet gotten Android 6.0 running just yet, as Android Police suggests.
Though the price tag may be a bottleneck to people experiencing the functionally-useful benefits of BetterBatteryStats, it is also a good indicator of quality. After all, if users want quality, they'll often have to end up paying for it either by cash or something more valuable (like time or personal information). Plus over 6,850 reviews with 5 stars on their Google play page could say a lot about how many people think the app is worth every penny.
