About HomeBatteries for HomeKit

HomeBatteries makes it super quick & easy to see all of your HomeKit accessory batteries in one location.


* As featured on HomeKit Insider, Shane Whatley & 9to5Mac *


If you have ever found yourself in the situation where a battery powered HomeKit accessory has stopped working, then HomeBatteries can prevent it from happening again. HomeBatteries enables you to view all of your Apple Home device battery levels in one place and get notified before they run out of power.


HomeBatteries contains these great features:

BATTERY STATUS

View each accessoryʼs battery level as a percentage alongside a glyph which gets highlighted if it is running low. Selecting an accessory will let you see even more details about the device including charge status, trends and more.


NOTIFICATIONS

Get notified before an accessory runs out of battery with support for notifications. Notifications are fully customizable from the Settings screen.


BATTERY TRENDS

View a history of your accessory battery levels and see when it was last charged/replaced so you can determine how long a battery lasts.


WIDGETS

Add the Low Batteries & Batteries widgets to see the status of your accessories on your Home or Lock Screen.


SHORTCUTS

With deep support for Siri Shortcuts, you’ll be able to access and control many features of the app. Use your device, or even HomePod, to get battery levels, last charge date and see which accessories are running low.


APPLE WATCH

View all of your batteries at a glance with the companion Apple Watch app.


BATTERY TYPES

Set the battery type for each accessory from a preset list of options or choose your own so you know what you need when it comes to charging/replacing them.


ICLOUD SYNC

Trend data and settings for all of your accessories sync over iCloud so you can access them from your other Apple devices.


UNIVERSAL PURCHASE

Get this app across multiple Apple platforms with a single purchase. Your HomeBatteries+ subscription works across devices too.

Please note that devices should have already been setup in the Apple Home app to use this app. Not all battery powered devices expose their battery level to HomeKit and will therefore not appear in HomeBatteries or the Home app. Notifications & widgets may not be up-to-date 100% of the time due to limitations with accessing HomeKit in the background but there is a Shortcuts Automation that can be enabled to improve this. Some features may require a HomeBatteries+ subscription which can be purchased in the app. You can cancel at anytime.

In this update:

- Added the ability to log charges/replacements so you can keep track of when a battery was last charged/replaced. These are highlighted in orange on the Battery Trends graph.

- Added an Apple Watch app that enables you to view battery levels at a glance. Rows are highlighted yellow/red when running low.

- On iPad & Apple Vision Pro, the app has been redesigned with a new 3 column layout to take advantage of the bigger space. In the sidebar, you can filter by rooms to quickly access accessories in that room. On iPhone, sections can be collapsed to access rooms quicker if you have a large number of accessories.

- Accessory settings and trends data now sync over iCloud so you can view details on all compatible Apple devices. Notification settings will also sync over iCloud too. Please note Widgets & Shortcuts may need to be reconfigured due to a new identification system that works over iCloud - this enables Shortcuts to work across devices too.

- HomeBatteries is now a free app with in-app purchases to get access to additional features such as low battery notifications, battery trends and more. Existing users will still get access to all of the original features they have paid for plus iCloud syncing and the new design. There is a limited-time discount on the lifetime plan that existing users can take advantage of if they would like to get access to new features such as Battery Trends. Please reach out if you are having issues accessing existing features.

- Added a Shortcuts action to log a charge/battery replacement for an accessory at a specified date & time.

- Added a Shortcuts action to check whether an accessory is currently charging or not.

- Added Shortcuts actions to fetch whether an accessory is hidden and another to toggle that state.

- Low batteries now stand out easier in the app as accessories that are sufficiently powered will now be grey instead of green.

- Accessories can now be renamed in the app by tapping the name on the accessory details screen. This is useful if you are seeing a different name in HomeBatteries when compared to the Home app.

- Added the ability for pull to refresh on the accessories list screen.

- Added an onboarding process for new users.

- Improved placeholder views when HomeBatteries doesn’t have access to HomeKit, a Home is empty or the user has no Homes in HomeKit.

- Widgets & Shortcuts Actions are now much quicker to load available accessories. Widgets have also been tweaked slightly.

- Improved the organisation of Shortcuts actions.

- Added the ability to filter accessories by room, manufacturer and model in Shortcuts.

- The Battery Accessories Shortcuts action has been marked as deprecated as the Find Accessory action is now preferred and offers the ability for filtering.
