Battery Guard App Reviews

Works great for what i needed and showed alot more that i didnt know about my battery. i downloaded it because i wanted to see the time remaining in the menu bar and i was a little put off reading reviews that it didnt when i thought it did. but after downloading it i found out it does show the time remaining in the menu bar. But you need to click on the lightning icon and then go to the settings gears at the bottom and then click the show option. There will be the option to show the percentage or the time remaining. Wala and ur done. I do wish i could do both the percentage and the time remaining but i can just set my normal battery icon that way. Overall Completely Satisfied.

Does not work on El Capitan , would give O stars if I could .

For a few years now OSX and macbook power management is so bad that each time I am getting to the point where the system should just suspend until connected again, and I am in a fullscreen game where I dont see the battery status, I end up having to reboot the system. This app was supposed to help work around this apple software quality issue, and it doesn’t, same thing happened again. No audible alert, the system just blanks out and quikly connecting the power cord does not prevent it from becoming unresponsive fror a long time, usually comes back up one more time then blanks again just as I am working on it again, then eventually have to reboot to regain control over the system. This app could be great if it had an audible alert, but it doesn’t.
