Amperes Battery Charging Lite

Perhaps many years ago this app may have been useful. But in days of ios 17+ and modern iphones it falls behind. Requires that you drain your battery to 70 % before any test can be performed. Tested an Apple Magsafe plugged into a 60w apple power supply. Said it was tested at 4.99w. Which is pony.

Very useful when trying to find out if you phone is overheating or not and also much other uses like comparing chargers

Firstly it refused to do a test on ‘Compare Wiees or Chargers’ and the app reported it will only work if the phone is at 90% or lower, well it was at 71%. Again the over power test wouldn’t work because it says the test would only work if the phone is at 75% or lower. Again it was at 72%. It also reported when I finally managed to get it to test something, said the wattage was low at 4.2watt but it’s on a 96watt charger with a 100watt cable. Useless, deleted the app and looking elsewhere. I suggest you do the same.

It monitors the charging rate of your phone so you can compare different chargers, leads, etc. Tests performed over a minute or two it takes for the battery to increase in charge level by at least 2%. Like 53% to 55%. Results reported in milliamperes but does NOT use the conventional abbreviation of mA but for some unknown reason displays MAMP. That does not inspire confidence. I think it estimates the charge rate by change in charge percentage reported by the iPhone, the specification of the battery capacity, and the time taken. So okay for comparisons of leads etc but maybe not good as an absolute reading. Also gives WATT value as it knows the battery voltage. Again unconventional in that the units MAMP and WATT are displayed before and not AFTER the readings! Keeps a record of test results and you can name them which is useful.

does not inform me when the battery is charged, e.g. 80%

Does not show live charge rate. Not worth the time or effort of installing

You have to pay just to test it on my phone I can do it for free as many time as I want

Nice and great thing if you want to make play around with your wires and charger but do not expect it to be accurate. Have tried using all fast chargers,car chargers and normal chargers and the results are a bit impressive apart from all fast chargers including both samsung and 40w iphone + usbc charger. I think ampere does not recognize fast charging and the highest result it can give is 980ma. Overall pretty good app.

Долгий тест

Работает хорошо. Долго, но работает. Помог определить мощность которую выдает беспроводная зарядка.
