Lubos Mikusiak said: It is worth to check out also Battery Watch Pro It keeps the log with battery level and displays the graph with battery levels in the past Using the logged battery levels it estimates time to empty based on the past usage Therefore it is very accurate for any iDevice not matter whether the battery is worn out or there are many apps running on the background or it is an iPhone 4S with the fast battery drain problem
