BT Battery Notifier

macOS · real time

Track your Bluetooth batteries.
In real time, on your Mac.

The app lives in the menu bar and shows the battery of your headphones, your keyboard, your mouse — the number moves in real time, as the device drains. Since 2.0 it also shows what only your phone can read, without duplicating anything. It keeps the last reading of anything that goes away, and warns you when something leaves with little left, so you never get caught empty.

Phone on the Mac · 2.0

What only the phone can see, on the Mac panel

macOS cannot read the battery of a paired phone, and it will never read the one on your wrist. So the phone reads them and sends them over: in the panel, under a divider, the devices it can see show up — the phone itself and your watch included. It is optional, you link the two with a code, and what travels goes encrypted end to end.

Alerts

The warning arrives while there is still time

When a device disconnects, the notification carries the level — and says it needs charging if it is under your threshold. The general rules apply to everything, and any device can have rules of its own, on its own page.

While away

The last reading stays on screen

A device you put away does not answer: over Bluetooth it simply is not there. Instead of showing a dash, the app keeps the last number it read and the time it read it — so the earbuds that went into the drawer at 12% keep saying they are the ones that need an outlet.

Other screens

The same app on your phone and on your wrist

On Android the widget puts every battery on the home screen, in real time, and the Wear OS watch joins the list with its own — and since 2.0 the Mac joins their list too. That is a page of its own, with a shot of each screen.
