Low Battery Notification Popup?

Note Series
#1

Is it possible to enable some kind of notification popup when the battery is very low before the device shuts itself down?

On all my other Android devices, there is a notification popup box when the battery gets dangerously low. I had assumed that there was such a feature on the Note, but it seems that there isn’t.

I knew my battery was low, about 20% to be precise, but I thought that would be more than sufficient for writing a short composition in the native note taking app. It wasn’t.

Suddenly, my screen changed, telling me to charge my device. Naturally, I plugged my Note into a wall charger. I then found myself back at the home screen.

When I navigated my way back to the note taking app, my composition was gone. I hadn’t been saving as I went along. Lesson learned.

From now on when writing or sketching, I will save the document periodically, particularly if I know my battery is getting low. That way, hopefully, I will not lose everything.

However, had there been a popup message warning me to save or close any open files and connect my device to a power source, this loss of information could have easily been avoided.

If you could tell me how to enable such a notification feature on the Note or make it available in a future update, I would be most grateful.

Thanks.

While I appriciate you passing this along, this is another example of a standard Android feature that has been removed from BOOX.

In addition, it’s a standard Android requirement that apps save their state. On normal Android devices, as the phone is rotated, the app is effectively stopped and re-started, and people get really annoyed with apps that loose what you have typed in such cases (especially for a note taking app)

The idea that a ‘need to charge now’ alert popping up can cause people to loose their notes is horrifying.

I absolutely LOVE the display for reading, but there is just so much that has been standard in Android since long before 6 that was deliberately ripped out that it’s hard to recommend it to others with the software in the current state.
