Reproduced in latest android/Google Pixel phone.

 

1. Charge Ionic

2. Wait till 83-90%

3. Sync app via Bluetooth

4. Check Ionic battery life on Bluetooth.

 

Expected

 

Says battery is medium or nearly charged.

 

Actual

 

Says battery is fully charged when it isn't.

 

It would be nice if we could get precise feedback here as well (tell us the battery percentage since last sync) but whatever.

 

If people want to supply feedback please state your OS and my steps to reproduce before you say you don't have this problem 🙂

 

Thanks.

The app only has about 3 battery states, full, half and empty so while I agree that greater accuracy would be possible that’s not the way that things have been implemented at the moment.  What you describe is what I would expect to see.
