App working fine on SIM FREE UK S8 Oreo but I get a permanent message in the notification shade saying "Energy Bar is displaying over other....." but no matter what I do it won't go, even checked settings are "on" to allow it and turned off notifications. Is there another way I can try please?

Solved it, swipe right and use the setting from the notification

A couple of suggestions/requests..

First, let me say that you've done an outstanding job of finally providing an unobtrusive way to have a bar on-screen! Obstructing any portion of the view has always been a huge caveat for me as well as a lot of others, I'm sure. Thank you for sharing your innovative solution to the problem with the community!

I wanted to throw out a couple of suggestions/requests. I didn't find any prior mention of them based on my searching the thread, but it's entirely possible that I just didn't search for the right words so forgive me if they've been brought up before.

The ability to manually enter any of the preference values by tapping the numerical label next to the seekbar as opposed to only being able to make changes using the seekbar

Some method of reordering the colors without having to edit the destination color and every successive color. Perhaps by dragging or "+" and "-" buttons to move a selected color "up" or "down" in the list.

Can you make it curved for the Pixel 2 XL please?
[Android Apps and Games] thereal_bigjake:
Just got a pixel xl 2 and was thinking the same thing, looks funky with the rounded corners
[Android Apps and Games] Ryano89:
Just bought the note 8 version. Fantastic!
[Android Apps and Games] jagan2:
Thank you for your comments, much appreciated. :)

Regarding your feedback,

#1 Manual entry for segments does make sense but it looked a bit confusing when user would enter an out of range (for a particular segment) number, the App could definitely adapt and do the splitting, but enforcing the range limit of each segment or auto-adjusting to whatever value the user entered didn't look elegant. Even though it sounds very simple, there will be always users left confused. The current implementation looked intuitive, and since it's mostly a one time setup, felt like this did a good job of visually explaining the segment limits etc.

#2 Reordering is a good suggestion, I had been thinking about it, will consider it for some future release. :)
[Android Apps and Games] xplamin:
Hello! great app!

It like too much. I paid PRO.

A good idea is add an export/import options for save settings.

One problem: when your choice again a mode (gradient, lineal, etc) the colors inverted order (per example: RED is Low level and BLUE High level, but after is on the contrary).

You can include an selector of level of transparency (in the mode status bar is too dark)?

Transparent status bar (already exists this option in the app) don't make nothing. All its equal when is on/off.

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] jagan2:
I believe I have already responded to your feedback via email, thanks for your time. :)
[Android Apps and Games] jagan2:
What's new in EB_6.4_BETA?

Latest update: The 'center' origin is now realistic and practical, try it out with 'Gradient' and 'Merged Segment' color configurations.

On some devices, you may have to enable the App in 'Auto-start Apps' settings to survive a phone reboot.

If you don't see Energy Bar after update, uninstall>reboot phone>install - turn on.

Expect 0 mAh battery consumption. :D
[Android Apps and Games] magpie2001k:
Hi Guys I have read lots of this thread not all but I keep getting permission denied please re-enable energy bar.

I Have uninstalled and reinstalled (rebooting phone in between)

Using S9+

Un rooted etc etc

Any help would be great
[Android Apps and Games] violin.siva:
Don't update beta 1.4. I too faced the same problem just revert back to 1.3 available in apkmirror and use till dev prepare a stable one.
[Android Apps and Games] Gerusz:
Can we get an option to disable Energy Bar for certain applications? My bank's app is quite paranoid about apps that draw on top of other apps and doesn't let you log in if it detects any of those.
[Android Apps and Games] magpie2001k:
I installed from google play store......
[Android Apps and Games] klear6:
Ok since the last update my bar has been inside-out. I have it set to center and the colors are backwards. Here, lemme give you screenshots. My battery isn't full, but it should be enough to show you what I mean. Sorry for the floating note bubble thing.

Btw HTC 10 Viper 1 rom
[Android Apps and Games] Myrrhman:
This app is awesome !!

Only one request and i know its been requested before.

Please please please add an option to set a charging color. Or even better, a color only when its fully charged.

From 100 to 30 I make the bar completely transparent. So when charging, i don't see when its full.

Hope this can be done. I'll gladly buy the pro version for it.

Now this might sound strange
[Android Apps and Games] Shark5060:
0-30 -> color

31-99 -> transparent

100 -> color

should work like what you're requesting, shouldn't it?
[Android Apps and Games] Myrrhman:
Omg, thanks !!!

Didn't think of that haha :o

Although it seems smaller than 2 is not allowed

So I end up with

97-100-> color

Which is not ideal, but I cant complain :)

Thanks for the tip [MENTION=5920269]Shark5060[/MENTION] !!!

(Still hope in the future maybe we can get a 'charging color' option :D )
[Android Apps and Games] beez1717:
I'm loving this but I think that there should be a way to reorder the colors so you can easily play around with them. Besides that, it is one of the first apps I recommend to users because it makes viewing the battery so much easier and fun. You just look up and know what thus battery level is immediately and it also shows how full this battery is at the moment in a cool visual way. Seeing the bar almost gone is a great way to easily get me to stop using my phone and conserve power.

Problem with notch

Please could you add a offset Option to make it possible to use and See the Bar on a blanke notch?

Thx KW
[Android Apps and Games] jagan2:
[MENTION=341647]lawmangrant[/MENTION]: Not at the moment, need them for supporting continued development. But I have made them completely non-disruptive to the actual use of the App or the behavior of the Bar.

[MENTION=4775688]GermainZ[/MENTION], I see a point by [MENTION=4140365]supergaijin[/MENTION], it's wouldn't be really fair to force people to buy Tasker to enable such feature and so I guess I will stick to the current implementation of having a shortcut in the notification panel to quickly toggle the Bar. But, I would like to hear your thoughts on this suggestion of having an option "disable in landscape mode", [MENTION=3325837]kazemitsui[/MENTION] and GermainZ?

:good: Glad you liked the App.

Yes, BUT the Bar will be shown as a notification, consuming standard notication space in the panel, is that okay?

[MENTION=4361738]b1g1an[/MENTION], interesting question to answer, Indeed.

Here is a little background story along with the differentiators:

Well, I had been a Windows Mobile ROM chef for HTC Touch Viva, and I was amazed by this Windows Mobile App called BattLineSvc. Wanted to bring out the same to Android with my own twists but by the time I got an Android Phone, skills, resources, a couple of Apps were out. But that doesn't mean, more flavors of a concept that good shouldn't be created, hence Energy Bar is the result.

Now, as you can see the nature of the App doesn't let it exhibit it's uniqueness on a first look. Here are the minute details that you may expect from the App,

Stability & Reliability - I have made sure that the Bar is stable on all the supported version of Android.

RAM!! I tried to bring the consumption as low as possible, if you proper close the UI (to configure the bar,) the Bar should ideally not consume more then 3 - 5 MB of RAM.

The pulsating Animation is more detailed than it looks. Suppose, you plugin charger at 30% and now it's charged to 45%. Now, when a new pulse comes in, it will penetrate the Bar and go until 30% but blinks at 60% and hence not only telling you that the charger is plugged in but also how much has been charged since it was plugged in.

If you feel the Bar originating from left or right looks assymetrical, you can center align it and lower down your thirst for perfection. And oh, your Animation will change as well if you center align.

A clean UI which lets your configurations a litttttttle bit interesting with the changes in the setting reflect live + the accent color of the UI correspons to your color choice.

Hope, that's satisfying response for my work. :)

[Android Apps and Games] shockwaverider:
Hi, thanks for your work. I was wondering if it's possible to do the opposite of what most people seem to want, I'd like to have the option for only having the bar be visible when I have a full screen app open. In other words, only to show the energy bar when the status bar is not visible. Hopefully, if this is indeed possible, you'll consider including it. Thanks again!
[Android Apps and Games] GermainZ:
I completely agree, which is why I suggested external control and not direct Tasker integration. You can also offer shortcuts for these actions, now that I think about it it's better since it's easier for users (LMT, Tasker (via a plugin,) GravityBox's launcher all support shortcuts.) Many free Tasker alternatives also support this AFAIK.

I'm personally very happy with the way it works currently, and never hide the bar. It was just a suggestion to accommodate all the requests. :)
[Android Apps and Games] corncobman:
I've noticed a slight problem when using it:

Other apps that use overlays to dim the screen don't seem to affect Energy Bar. I use Lux and during the night I set it to dim the screen, however Energy Bar appears at full brightness making the bar too bright when the rest of the screen is dimmed.
[Android Apps and Games] polobunny:
+1. Same here for Screen filter.
[Android Apps and Games] Gu$houn*:
Using Lux too and the energy bar dims normally /but the navbar icons are staying bright/.

[Android Apps and Games] polobunny:
That's pretty much how mine looks. Got tired of the battery icon because of my OCD, I kept checking it and dying a bit when I saw the percentage drop. Battery bar gives me a quick approximation without stressing me. :p
[Android Apps and Games] Gu$houn*:
Though I was the only one who stalks every percentage point. :D I stopped doing that when I get my nexus and I'm better person now. :D

I really love how it fits into KitKat's /purity's ?/ layout & look.:good:

why not a color picker where you can choose color by hex values like the android color picker?
[Android Apps and Games] kazemitsui:
Hi Jagen. Great work and yes I would totally agree it would be really unfair to force someone to use tasker/lamma or any of those other apps just for that feature. But WOULD it be possible to implement both features, your current way and then add in some small coding for tasker compatibility? I am in no ways a programmer or coder so I honestly don't know if that is time consuming. Nor would i know if that adds additional battery drain. But if you could implement both methods I think that would be ideal!
[Android Apps and Games] Djalil87:
Hi [MENTION=1884109]jagan2[/MENTION],

Thanks for this super app.

I'm experiencing a bug on my PH-1 since the P update. The bar does not reach the top of the screen and does not go through the notch. It sits below the notch.

Thanks !

[UPDATE]

With Essential's October update, bringing back notch settings, the issue is gone.

[Android Apps and Games] enzeem2010:
There's an update on Google Play this morning.
[Android Apps and Games] prnorm:
I noticed the same. Wonder if it had to do with removing accessibility service. I think Google restricted that so it now has to use notification access. I'm guessing that's maybe why it was removed and later re-added without accessibility permissions.
[Android Apps and Games] gidano:
Suggestion: Due to the notch, it would be good to place the battery bar on the bottom of the screen!
[Android Apps and Games] cousinit99:
The last update broke something. It keeps telling me to allow Notification Access, even though it's already allowed. I had to revert to 6.3.2. All of the newer versions have the same problem. Hopefully a fix is coming for this.
[Android Apps and Games] Sri28:
For notch displays

Can you develop it for notched displays sot hat it goes round the notch and indicates the battery fully
[Android Apps and Games] Rinoceros:
I have the same issue on Samsung Galaxy Tab S with Nougat. It points me directly to Accounts instead of Apps and it doesn't show up in the notifications settings.

If i downgrade to 6.3.2(beta) it doesn't read the settings anymore.

De installed, I hope for a fix soon.

It works fine on my OP 5T
[Android Apps and Games] jagan2:
Hey Guys! Thanks for the concern and interest in the App, as you may have noticed the App is up on Play Store.

I would love to make versions dedicated for the tear drop notch displays, but unfortunately the curvature is different for different devices and I don't have physical access to them. Making and testing those versions would be very complicated.

* Now runs as an Accessibility Service to display over Status Bar.

* Random disappearance bug fixed.

* Auto recognize 'Support Dev Pack' purchase.

* Shows new welcome screen to existing users.

* Two locations to choose from 'Top' and 'Bottom' of Status Bar.
[Android Apps and Games] hyborian:
I now retire Energy Bar too, at least on my phones with big notches, Poco and Redmi Note 7. It is now useless without the Status Bar feature (i.e. under Status Bar). It was fine before the update, on Android 10 and Pie.

Have now switched to Power Bar (Battery Bar), still works under the status bar, with more colors.

Thanks for your work !
[Android Apps and Games] NmeEcko:
is this app still being worked on for the newest version of android? or is this wonderful app dead as well?
[Android Apps and Games] jagan2:
:victory:

Am trying to find an ideal way to either detect full screen app or some particular app launch, if I find one this might be possible to do as well. Currently, I do not wish my App to monitor constantly launch of some particular list of apps that user define and drain Battery.

Thanks! And ah, I will add up a raw link to the first post if that's the case.
[Android Apps and Games] jagan2:
And about the Shortcut/Tasker integration, I got your suggestions noted will look into it. BTW, you guys have given amazing feedback so far, some good challenging requests for me, I will work on them but please don't be disappointed if you don't see a particular feature that you hoped to see in the immediate next update, I would like to work one by one on the features, I have also received 2 - 3 crash reports from some particular devices, have to fix that as well (and the fact that am not able to re-produce the crash on my device makes it harder.)

And oh, those screen set-ups you guys have got looks so clean/beautiful, I have a 2.7" screen device so nothing to showcase :P ... but you guys', I don't know if the Bar is complementing your screen set-up or the set-up complementing the Bar. Either way, Awesome! And all those are going to the Third post of this thread that I reserved! Checkout Post #3 in a while :)
[Android Apps and Games] SystemErrorOne:
Neat app I think ive seen something like this before somewhere...but good job keep it up love the UI.

Also Just a thought I like the current Icon looks neat but maybe put a border around the main icon. I like the square one better but thats just me. Let me know what you think.
[Android Apps and Games] jagan2:
And Oh, I almost forgot, the screen filter/dimming apps. I didn't try them yet, but from what I understand from your descriptions is that, the dimming app probably overlays a black shaded transparent full-screen sized rectangle, and initially it's covering everything (even the Bar.) But now, when the Bar is wake up by the System to reflect the new Battery Change, it takes over the 'IDLE' dimming overlay and now it stays over top, hence no dimming effect work on the Bar, until you reset/adjust the dimming effect. I don't think it's really possible to let these kinda apps communicate with the Bar, so that they refresh themselves when the Bar is done refreshing.
[Android Apps and Games] polobunny:
I'm pretty sure that what happens indeed, but some battery bar apps are able to get dimmed. :/
[Android Apps and Games] jagan2:
Wowy! Believe it or not, I had ACTUALLY been trying to do a similar shadow/extension effect after designing the original logo. But due to my poor graphics skills and the fact that I had to code everything + think of some interesting design + implement the design didn't let me create one as you did. I love it, and indeed the square one looks good, complements the squary nature of the Bar, I like the current color combination in the square one, but can you make the oval one into square as well, just to see how it looks in the darker color.
[Android Apps and Games] jagan2:
[MENTION=4311957]polobunny[/MENTION], I will play around with those apps and figure out how to do that. But please be reminded, there are many things in the priority list to be done, so don't expect changes in the next immediate update. :)

EDIT: And of course, if you do the dimming via System, the Bar will politely obey the System rules :)
