Android 14 new battery health insights

There are rumors about the Android 14 new battery health insights that will give you users insights similar to iPhone. Users can expect insights such as its original capacity percentage, number of charge cycles, and more.

This new feature was spotted and detained by Mishaal Rahman on Twitter. Google is preparing a “battery health”.

This feature will display information regarding a device’s estimated percentage of its original capacity, its number of charge cycles, charging policy, and manufacturing date.

Rahman states the newly added system APIs can be called forth by any app with the BATTERY_STATS permission.

Due to this, another developer, Narek, whipped up a proof-of-concept of this battery health feature still in development, using the existent APIs in the latest update. So users can play around with it — titled “batt.”

Google recently pushed out the Android 14 Beta 2.1 build for Pixels that are still on Android 13. Which fixed several bugs such as one user’s encounter with Photos.

Users have reported constant freezing. And crashing whenever they’ve tried switching from their camera’s standard lens to the ultra wide-angle lens.
