Watch Voltage #20
Description
Could we please have an easy method for a Watch Widget or Watch App to access the watch voltage?
One suggestion might be: (bearing in mind that we have a timer and an option to append watch voltage details to a file) to have an option and a timer controlling a broadcast of the watch voltage details.
I have almost finished a new watch widget - here's what it does and why I need the voltage...
The watch is most unhelpful in its voltage display. When fully charged it shows full, after a few minutes it shows half, it then stays at half for the rest of the time until all of a sudden it will show critical. Unless you understand the various voltages (given to 3 decimal places) then you get no real warning or information as to the state of the battery. The first edition of this widget tracks the maximum and minimum observed voltages (with reasonable starting values obtained from the MWM watch voltage log) and provides a 30 point scale as the voltage changes with LOW and CRITICAL points that can be user-tailored. It also has optional watch messages when LOW and CRITICAL arrive.
For the time being, I can tailor the MWM to get what I need, but then that means I can no longer take automatic updates through the Google Play market, and I can't simply make my Watch App available for customers would need my tailored MWM too and I'd rather not offer that on Play.
Please consider providing a handy means for an App/Widget to obtain the voltage regularly, or if that can already be done then please advise for I don't see it in the current code having traced through how the voltage log is obtained and written to storage.
