4 years ago Hey, having an overlay instead of (or in addition to) the current toast notifications might be a way to fix the problem that fullscreen games/applications tend to lead Win10 to not show the toast. We currently only have the optional alarm sound for that.
But I'll be honest with you, since I'm not a full-fledged programmer (this is just a hobby project) the chance for getting this to work is... veeeeery small. If more people are interested in something like this I can read up on if/how this can be implemented, but I can't promise that it will ever work without help from people who know that they're doing 😅

Additional screenshots are in the pull request #52. It can be triggered by low battery state and also by pressing the xbox button on the controller.
Hi First, thanks for the app, it's a life saver.
2nd, I'd like to suggest a feature of having an overlay message appears on screen/games or desktop as well when the battery reaches critical level. Example:
As alarm may get lost with game sounds, or not preferred by some users. If possible to include the options to: -Message position (Top left - center) -Transparency control (Non - 60%) -Messages interval ( Once - Every 5/10? minutes) Not sure how long will the battery last at critical about 30 minutes? -Design selection (Just like the sound alarm)
Also if this possible, to press once on Xbox Home button to show battery level status for 3 sec in the same message overlay would be nice, although it's not critical.
I'm a graphic designer and I can help making high quality overlay templates in any format needed. Thank you :)
