About Energy Bar - A pulsating Battery indicator!
Adds a configurable Energy Bar at the top of your screen indicating current Battery level. And just when you think, such a simple battery bar can display such a crucial information, try plugging in your charger - you'll be amazed by the details of the animation you'll see. The pulsating animation and the bar together not only indicates the current Battery level but also how much has the Battery charged since you plugged in your charger.
Got a full charge? The line will cover the whole width of your screen.
Battery depleting? So will the length of Energy Bar.
The latest update of the App let's Energy Bar feel all privileged as it's now more integrated with the device in the form of an Accessibility Service. To you as an user it means, Energy Bar will be very reliable and fits well with the System. And to complement the integration, a nice UI which let's you perform all sort of configuration on the Bar while it's live on your screen.
Out of the box features:-
✓ Energy Bar can be configured from a width of 1 pixel to cover the entire status bar (pro)
✓ Energy Bar puts almost 0% load on CPU, as it wakes up only to reflect any change in battery level
✓ Energy Bar's origin can be configured as left/center/right
✓ Energy Bar can hide on fullscreen content (apps, videos, images, games etc)
✓ Energy Bar can be configured to change colors automatically depending on the live battery level
✓ Energy Bar could have a mono color/multiple color segments/gradient (pro)
✓ You can literally assign any color in the world for your favorite configuration
✓ Energy Bar as a cool pulsating animation whenever a power source is plugged into your device
All that is cool! But what about Energy Bar consuming Battery?!
This is one of the most exciting question for me to answer. Energy Bar more than anything understands that you need to utilize your battery efficiently (after all, that's why you installed the App, right? ;) .) Energy Bar sits on the screen silently putting almost 0% load on CPU, if battery level changes, Android wakes up Energy Bar. Once awake, Energy Bar quickly updates itself and goes back to sleep. And to be that extra efficient, the Bar goes on deep sleep when you turn off the screen, meaning it doesn't even read changes in battery level when the screen is off.
Notification Access requirement: Users have been enjoying the ultra stability and reliability of Energy Bar every since version 5.0. And that's because it had been running as an Accessibility Service. But now, the powerful permission has been downgraded to Notification Access, Energy Bar does not read any Notification whatsoever, it merely relies on it to be alive. Be assured that the App does NOT access anything. Note that Energy Bar has been trusted by the XDA Developers community since ages now - http://bit.ly/xda_EB

1-pixel thick bar, 1 Million downloads, thanks everyone for the support, you're the best! :)
The App now relies on 'Notification Access' rather than the powerful & sensitive Accessibility Service, to be alive forever.
Upgrading from a previous version?
Click the activation switch, enable Notification Access even if you see the Bar already active.
On some devices, you may have to enable the App in 'Auto-start Apps' settings to survive a phone reboot.
Expect 0 mAh battery consumption. :D

By far the best app. The new update asks for new permissions which keeps the app more stable and doesn't snoop in to any of your personal information. So the people saying "I'm deleting this app now", I bet you have Facebook which is the worst app by far for snooping

I think the app is very useful if you hide your status bar but still want to know the battery level, but i think it would be a really good addition to have the option of moving the bar to the screen's side and making it vertical, instead of only the top of the screen. Having it at the bottom would be lovely too! Otherwise, it's a great little app in my opinion.

Was ok before last update. Now wants excessive permission. Found a good alternative that works just as well with no permission.

Disappointed. The new update with the permission change now no longer correctly detects when apps ask for permission, and as such results in "screen overlay detected" errors all the bloody time.

Worked well until a recent update, now it won't work without access to all. My notifications and messages, why does it need that?!! Very disappointed, and I have paid for it nearly £2

Do not update! New version wants waaay too much access to your private info. Switching to 1 of the many competing apps.

Why do you keep upping your price? Every time I get round to wanting to buy the full version I see a higher price than the last time and yet nothing new is added :/ Excellent app otherwise. The most attractive energy/ battery bar I know of on Android.

This is a good, modern app! Dear developer, the charging animation is amazing, but the little line goes to the place when you started charging (for all the animations), bounces, then moves to the end and starts blinking. I suggest that you make it just go to the end and start blinking.

This app is great! Makes it much easier to glance at the phone and get an idea of how much battery you have. I have it split up into 20 percent increments. Plus I think the bar at the top of the screen looks cool to boot!

I have a Samsung S8 with curved edge screen; making the first and last few percentages of a 1 pixel line not visible. Do you have a solution? Maybe 1px line with optional curves... Also the line width is incorrect on Samsung Dex / Android Desktop.

I like the quick and easy customization controls. And the charging animation. The latest version seems to have sorted out an overlay error message I was getting on the earlier version. Neat app!

Worked great but now broken. Forced to buy dev pack. (I don't mind, they deserve something for all their work) however it's now broken and will only display the normal skinny bar. Dev website offline. No way to contact Dev.

Brilliant. Would love a backup feature for our colours. Currently im storing the settings in a note app. Also + and - keys for adjustment as the bars a bit fiddly. Adjusting once setup means you have to delete the lot and start again. Would love a cool feature where the last segment red 20% on mine . Would pulse or phase in and out like a heartbeat for low power. JUST A NOTE :Had to drop 1 star as I'm getting screen burn on my s8 plus. Mainly with Yellow colour. Is it possible to set the charging block to say run in reverse downwards as the battery is draining. And set our own colour. That way it won't be a static image for long periods. CAN'T FIND A WAY TO EMAIL YOU??

Creative and minimalistic unique concept! I love it, it makes my battery percentage and the icon useless and instead have a nice color bar on my status bar. Here are my 5 stars + a Contribution for such a great work =]

STILL no black 'background' for the bar so the colors are always visible :( If i'm on a red screen and my bar is red, then i can't see the proper length as the line continues with the screen background! A million downloads and nobody has noticed this? Its it a pro only thing? Cuz I got pro :/

Great!!! Does exactly what is says it does... Let's me know at a glance what my power is and if I need to plug in. Can't see any ???? drain with this ????. I recommend this highly for people who are concerned about having enough charge to go about their daily lives ????
