Show HN: I built a small app to let you see your contacts' battery level

Hi HN; "Watts"App because the Watt is the SI unit of power. I built this to learn SwiftUI and then ported it to Android since the API was available there too.

The app does not poll your battery for its state, rather when the app is open, we are able to listen for changes to your battery level and update the server.

Thoughts? Thanks HN.

is this open source by any chance?

i guess your contacts have to install the app too?

im completely ignorant about iphone development, whats the tool stack for SwiftUI? do you need to develop in macos or is linux supported?

Hi, its not open source. But happy to share any programming lessons from above.

Yes, your contacts have to install the app too.

To code in swiftui, you may need a mac. Flutter though, is cross platforms.

So useless, I love it XD
