Battery life is always a top concern for iPhone 5 users whether the device is jailbroken or not. When increased battery usage occurs it’s hard to know for sure which is the exact cause, but a battery monitoring app is bound to help keep current with your device’ battery wear and tear status. The iBatteryInfo is one of them most popular jailbreak tweaks for iPhone 5 as it provides useful information about the battery when you plug and unplug the smartphone.
What sets iBatteryInfo apart from other battery monitoring tweaks is its simplicity. The tweak doesn’t even have an icon in the SpringBoard and there’s just one option available in its Settings menu. Although it might lack the intricate menu of other jailbreak tweaks, the iBatteryInfo does provide useful information to the iOS user. For instance, you might think the device is fully charged but iBatteryInfo knows better as it keeps a close eye on the device’s actual charging status.
iBatteryInfo is developed by davidedj10 and is available both for tablet and smartphone in the BigBoss Repo, on the Cydia jailbreak store. It delivers information about battery, charging cycles, amperage, watts and connector every time you plug and unplug your iPad or iPhone. There’s also information about the battery’s serial number and cable details, but the best feature is showing whether or not your iPhone/iPad is fully charged.
Messages are prompted even if you are running an app or if the lock screen is on. You can enable or disable the iBatteryInfo’s notifications in the Settings. The app is free and both reviewers and users agree it really is one of the best battery apps in the Cydia jailbreak store.
If iBatteryInfo isn’t the tweak for you, there are others you could try. BatteryDoctorPro, Battery Status and BattSaver are top of the list.
