Will keep a note of it, expect the feature to be added in one of the future releases, if you don't see it, feel free to send a reminder note. :)

Yes, but unlike Omni headers, status bar is really a narrow space to display something creative. I will think more on that later.

Hi! Thanks for your comments regarding the App and my work. :)

Now, regarding the issues you're facing, as you have correctly identified, both the Apps insist to be at the very top. I am afraid, Energy Bar can't communicate with 3rd party Apps to show some compatibility with each other. The general idea is that, the most recently added Overlay Window stays at the top most layer. But then, if there is an active App, which redraws itself every now and then, then naturally this other App will jump to top time to time.

Energy Bar monitoring whether it's on the top most layer would be a very expensive task on CPU, which would go against the philosophy of displaying the battery level and not consuming it. Hope that clarifies.

Here is a thing about animations, they are expensive on CPU, even sometimes on a high end phone. The reason is that, unlike a regular App, Energy Bar overlays on top of whatever is being shown on the screen, this adds additional computation on the system.

The result is that, if the you play something designed to look fast, in many devices it would end up looking choppy or using a lot of CPU. The current styling is aimed to create a balanced animation. Providing an option to reduce the time of an animation cycle may sound like a good idea, but when users on some devices find that they do not see the fast animation they expect, they may be disappointed. And that becomes a hassle to explain every user, especially through Play Store reviews.

You're welcome! :)

Hi! A couple of things I would like to emphasize:

As the App explicitly mentions at several places (including an in-app note,) it comes with no warranty whatsoever. Different devices behave very differenctly, courtesy of OEM customizations. So, it won't be feasible for me to address all the issues, I encourage users to use the App in its default state free forever, if they find it working as per their expectation, they can upgrade to support the development + lots of additional customization. The upgrade doesn't change the stock behavior of Energy Bar, but just adds additional customizations.

It's not always feasible to keep a check on every single channel of communication, especially me being the sole developer of the App. However, I am usually super responsive when an email is sent in. :)

Now regarding the issue, on most of the devices Energy Bar runs forever uninterrupted once enabled. But some OEM's customized Android version have built-in mechanisms to keep killing background services (that's not a standard Android behaviour, especially not for an Accessibility Service.) Now often, there are ways to prevent it. Promising no guarantee for a solution, the two ways I know of are,

#1 You need to find "Battery Optimization" or something similarly named in your settings (here is an example.) And disable it for Energy Bar.

#2 You need to find "Ram Optimization" or something similarly named in settings, which manages ram on your device by killing things in background. If you use Smart Manager from Samsung, this might be useful place to explore.

The 'Support Dev Pack' is a lifetime upgrade, that you can use not only on your current device, but on your future device, not just on one, but multiple ones. I appreciate your patience and words dealing with the issue, if you insist that a refund would be super helpful to you, please email me. :)

[MENTION=1169837]ZeblodS[/MENTION] Hi! From your description, you do not have an issue with Energy Bar being killed. But the delay in refreshing whenever the screen orientation changes.

On my Moto X Play, the refresh on rotation happens almost instantaneous. Could you please send me a short video demonstrating the lag (while you rotate the device on different Apps.) That may help me better understand why it's specific to your phone.

Hi! Thanks for your support. :)

If I remember well, I was requested for a similar feature earlier. I like the idea, but doesn't the "Merged Segments" color configuration serve the same purpose, well?

Making Energy Bar periodically blink the LED light when the screen off would result in Energy Bar being active all the time. Currently, Energy Bar shuts down when the screen is off, hence stays efficient. :)

Hi! Thanks! :)
