I went to install gsam battery monitor on a new phone and it looks like it has been delisted recently.

Does anyone has more info on that? It was a staple on my phones since almost a decade…

Any alternative that shows a graph with rate of charge/discharge?

Android has this feature natively. Just go to settings > battery > battery usage

but on android < 15 it resets as soon as you plug the charger, so it’s not as useful which app drained the battery during the day. Plus it’s buried in the settings. (with a decent launcher it’s possible to have a shortcut)

On android > 14 is a good enough replacement, though

Ye, the native stuff has nothing on what apps like GSAM show, and doesn’t let you set a custom start point.

I use GSam with a start point of “now” which on my phone is weeks ago. So I get a better perspective of what’s using battery.

Or if I’m troubleshooting, I set it to “since last full charge” and watch what’s happening today, in pretty granular detail.
