BattView for Apple Watch

After almost a year of development, the Apple Watch version of BattView is now available.  

What is BattView for Apple Watch

Just like the popular iOS app, it tests battery levels for Bluetooth fitness related devices.  

Faster, Smarter, Better

Running these tests on a Apple Watch is no easy feat.  To save power and keep thing efficient, BattView learns which devices have batteries and those that don't. The more you use BattView, the faster it gets.

Features

• Shows color coded % battery estimates for all devices in range
• Learns which devices have batteries for faster updates in future.
• Performs more comprehensive full scans to discover new devices that might have been missed. 
• Watch face complication for quick single press launching.

Here's a summary of BattView for Apple Watch functions.

1. Main Screen: Results of a default auto scan shows batteries level for devices in range. Devices without batteries are hidden. Press Re-Scan to do another battery scan.
   
   You can press Auto → Full to change to full scanning mode.  This scan takes a bit longer, but it will often find battery devices that were previously hidden.

BattView for iOS

BattView is an iOS app that tests battery levels for all your Bluetooth fitness related devices.  

You can now get battery level estimates for devices like heart rate monitors, Zwift controllers, speed sensors and power meters before starting a workout. No more opening multiple apps. 

Start scanning with a single button. Battery level and signal strength are displayed in seconds. 

BattView is easy to Use

FAQ

Q: Why can't I get battery levels from all my devices?

A: There are a couple of challenges:

1. Many Bluetooth devices support only one connection at a time. It is best to run Battery Tests before opening any other apps. This lets GearView read battery levels before the respective devices are  connected to other apps. 
2. BattView supports Bluetooth devices that do not require secure pairing with a proprietary app. Devices like Garmin bike computers or Cycliq cameras will not report battery levels to a general purpose app like BattView.

I recently discovered that BattView works well after finishing a ride. 

I shut down all my apps like Zwift and Stages Cycling. This makes battery scans fast and easy.
