Battery Stats Shortcut Download

First, open this Battery Stats shortcut link on your iPhone, and tap Get Started. This will open up the shortcut in the Shortcuts app. Here, tap Add Shortcut and add it to your shortcuts library.
I have the same complaint. I love the system and how I can easily set up devices and control them. When you have multiple battery-powered devices, it is unreasonable to expect us to regularly check the device status individually. I get tons of phone notifications from multiple apps, and I regularly miss a low battery notice. I usually figure out I have a problem when I see a light not working.
I think it would be useful to have a screen in the app showing battery status icons for all ring devices at once (alarm devices, cameras, etc). It would be much more convenient than clicking each device individually to find out which ones will need batteries charged or replaced soon.
The shortcut, named Battery Stats can be downloaded thanks to this Reddit thread, and it works well. What it actually does, is that it looks at iPadOS 16 logs and then pulls out the information that tells you your battery capacity and charge cycles.
I have created a shortcut that causes the default notification sound and then has Siri announce the battery percentage and says "time to charge." It Then enables low power mode. It isn't possible to share an automation, but it is possible to set up an automated trigger on your phone that will run this shortcut.
Just go to the Shortcuts app and tap the automations tab at the bottom. There will be a "create new automation" button in the top left corner. Choose that option for battery level and then pick run shortcut as the action.
I have attempted to share a link to my shortcut, but I don't know if it will work. I know you have to first run one shortcut, then go to Settings, Shortcuts, and enable use of untrusted shortcuts in order to use it.
This is what was said earlier this year. If someone could do a podcast on this it would be great.
This is an upcoming possibility in iOs 14.
In the Shortcuts app, you could create an automation, set it's trigger to a certain battery level. Then have the automation get battery status and make it say the status out loud with the speak text action. You could also make it switch to lowpower mode or do other actions you might need.

If you typically use function keys more often than shortcut keys, install Logitech software and useit to set up shortcut keys as function keys and use the keys to perform functions without having to hold down the fn key.
