Set Charge - Set Battery Charge Limit (No Root)

Imposta il limite di carica della batteria utilizzando le smart plug compatibili con Philips Hue

Reduce battery capacity loss of your Android device by limiting extreme charging using smart home automation

ABOUT THIS APP (No Root Required)

Set Charge works with Philips Hue bridge compatible smart plug devices on your home network to provide a controlled charging solution of your smartphone and tablet battery. Reducing the level of charge each time you plug in your device can reduce battery capacity loss and extend the life of your android device.

EXTEND BATTERY LIFE

Repeated 100% charging of your phone can increase degradation of its lithium battery. Continued cycling results in lower battery capacity meaning shorter time between device recharges. Limiting the charge to a lower value each time you charge can reduce battery degradation and extend the useful life of your smartphone. It is recommended to keep your phone between 20%-80% charged to reduce degradation while providing usable durations between charges.

USING SETCHARGE

Initial bridge setup and smart plug connection should take place in the application for Philips Hue ensuring your device Wi-Fi is on and connected to your home network.

Launch SetCharge and follow instructions to pair to your bridge. Connect your phone to your factory charger and plug into the bridge compatible smart plug. Search for available plugs, enter a charge target and start charging. SetCharge will verify the plug you are connected to, check your battery status during charging, and exit the application once charging is complete. For best results, ensure the android device and smart plug have adequate connection to home Wi-Fi and hue bridge during use.
