App usage time/battery

Open Tealk opened this issue 2 years ago • 5 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. It would be nice if you could filter the app by time and battery consumption, because you could compare which app causes high battery consumption.

Describe the solution you'd like In the tab app data usage extend the filter with battery and screentime Also extend the app view with battery usage

Well this app is for monitoring network data usage at the moment. And this sounds like the job of a battery stats monitoring application.

Anyways, lemme see what i can do.

I'm not sure if I understand this wrong, the data are already on the device and only need to be queried?

Thanks for your work

Technically yes, the data is provided by the system. But I was talking about the nature of the app. Monitoring battery stats of applications is what a Battery stats monitoring app would do and not a network monitoring app like 'Data Monitor'.

Thanks for your work

I appreciate that, glad you liked it.

I believe this will get more diversity in usage of app why have two apps when you can have one?

Much better having several apps that do their own specific thing well, than have a handful of semi-useful, semi-bloated apps. Currently DataMonitor is the only opensource app i know that can help you monitor your data, so i'd say: let's focus on that.

But if anyone wants to create their own app which would combine data usage and battery consumption monitoring then help yourself! there is plenty of opensource code to pick and build from :)
