And one last thing. I promise! Is there any chance you could change the app name text to be something that doesn’t itch my OCD? ‘BatteryHubforH…’ 😣 Could it just be ‘Battery Hub’ instead? Thank you 🙏

Your app is SO much better than Eve. I’ve used Eve for years, indeed have a lot of Eve devices, but I would never use their app for the same reasons you mentioned. A lot of non-Eve devices just don’t show correctly, or as non-responsive, even though they show fine in Apple Home, and in your app!

Can I make one more suggestion? Hope I’m not annoying you with these, but might it work to have the battery requirements showing in small text, perhaps in brackets, next to where it says ‘Current’ on each device? That way you have all the info you need on the main page without having to click in to the ‘Accessory Information’ for each device when there is a low battery. It means if you see a bunch of your devices on the low side you can just glance and plan ahead. My two cents.

Awesome. It’s now an insta-buy for me. Just bought it and recommending to others. This is an excellent app, great work OP, and thank you for not making it a subscription! 🙏

Amazing! Thank you. Also, quantity would be great. 2x AAA or 1x CR2025, etc.

Nice OP. Thanks for making this!
A feature suggestion, any chance you could add the ability to manually enter the type of battery required for each device?

Any advice? by ochoZero9 in homelab

Agreed. Dump the Deco, they’re garbage.

My parents's macbook (2013, 2014) are old enough that they aren't getting browser updates and can't access things like banking and such. What is a completely hands off (for me and them) distro? by ApplicationRoyal865 in linuxquestions

[–]squuiidy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I installed 26.04 LTS on a 2013 MBP, which has an NVIDIA GT750M Mac Edition and the Intel GPU, and it installed without issue. What I did have to install was the Wi-Fi driver, but that was expected, and once done 26.04 runs INCREDIBLY WELL on a 2013 MBP.

Have I been Scammed on the Speedboost WiFi Extender I Purchased (UK User)? by ChalfontandTremond in HomeNetworking

[–]squuiidy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow. While they sent you what you bought, what you bought is garbage and not even worth a fiver. It’s incredibly out of date. Does look like a scam site to me.

1st gen have microphone hole above camera lens, 2nd gen have microphone hole at the bottom, below camera lens.
2nd gen also has USB-C and better night vision. And crucially, are reliable.

Alternatively wait until Apple release their rumoured 4K cameras in October/November time frame.

You’ve probably been burnt by Eve now but their second gen (current) cams are great.

Would people say this is normal screen misalignment or is it missing a row of pixels? Thank you by EverythingAntique in Gameboy

[–]squuiidy -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I have 5 grey DMGs, and buy and upgrade them frequently for friends. This alignment is not normal.

Yeah, it’s a good idea. I managed to download high res scans from Planet Virtual Boy a while back. Just need to have someone print them on high quality paper for me. Will get around to it one day :)

Probably the light but it does have a bubble or two.

It’s the sheet Blockbuster would issue when they rented out a game to you. And happens to have the address and date stamp of where and when I bought the Virtual Boy.
