Port core feature to AsteroidOS? #51

Open eLtMosen opened 2 years ago

Hello dear direc85! Great to see you are involved in the AsteroidOS Sailfish client. I am yearning for the great BatteryBuddy charge control feature to be usable on AOS. Since the base is very similar, would it be possible to "easily" port the SailfishOS daemon you wrote? Batteries in Smartwatches are pretty small and i guess it would not make too much sense for users to limit the charge, whereas i personally would love to limit the charge of watches that hold longer than a day to safe the battery a little. Foremost, this might help developers developing on device and have it connected to a charging dock most of the time. Currently this leads to constant 100% charge with only a small margin until the charging starts again. Would love to read your thoughts on the matter! Thank you for all your work.

Thanks for your message!

The core functionality is quite simple really, and whipping up an application to AsteroidOS - which is also based on libhybris IIRC - shouldn't be too hard! The bigger issue for me is setting the development environment up, I know nothing about it. I can look into it, but not in the near future, I'm afraid. Let's keep this ticket open, though!
