BlackBerry App Roundup for February 19th, 2010; Contest: 50 Copies of Vorino Battery to be Won!

I am eager to use the "battery full-alert" function. There are times when I leave my phone in another room charging when I'd rather know as soon as its completely charged. I aire appreciate a detailed battery readout.

I like the charge monitoring the most. I never feel that you really know when the battery is fully charged and am always wondering if I overcharge the battery. Overcharging is bad according to all I read.

I will use the alerting feature the most, and right behind that will be the graphing over time feature.

I like knowing that Vorino battery will alert me when my battery falls below a certain percentage of charge. This would be very helpful - especially when you're so busy on your blackberry that you forget to check the battery power level. What a great program. Would love to win a copy.

Is exactley what we look for, a real information about battery status. For me my main concer in Mob phones...

Charge monitoring would be a good feature to have, I like how the app can help you monitor not only the amount of charge the battery has but the battery temperature as well.

Definitely level monitoring.

the low battery alert

This is absolutely an amazing app!

For me, it's the detailed battery level. I need a good estimate of the time left since I use it all day at work. Sometimes ALT+SHIFT+H isn't as handy. A nice visual would be handy. Maybe I'm just lazy..who knows..*yawn*

I just want to know without having to do the three fingered shortcut!!

Live icon with battery percentage would be a great use.

I want one please. Please O please!

As I have a blackberry storm 9500 and have issues with the battery life being tempromental im sure this app will be a life saver so ill be able to ensure my phone stays charged using the alarm function which sounds a great idea ill also be able to monitor how and when the problems occur with my BB using the log facility. It sounds like an app that should be included with battery draining phone such as the Storm.

Def an essential app !

This seems like a interesting app to try.

Would use the level monitoring the most. I current have to check options -> status to check %, too many steps.

I like the thought of knowing when my battery is fully charged as opposed to always having to check on it. Would like to give this app a shot.

grazie mi piacerebbe

I would love a copy of Vorino Battery! One of the features which jumps out at me so far, is the level of customization of not only appearance, but of notifications.

I need this!

Level monitoring would really useful as the oem version does not give much details...

I would use Vorino Battery all the time because lots of times i don't realize my battery is almost dead. The notifier would be great because i would set it for a tone just to remind me that my Berry is almost dead.

I would use charting on Varini Battery app. I like to see how new leaked OS's perform on battery levels. It looks like a great app. The meter would also be used to check real battery levels!! The one Rim gives you only shows in 10% increments.

The Borg

I am definitely interested in the charge monitor so I don't overcharge.

Having an app that gives more detailed info than RIM built into the phone would be a definite plus. The low level alert would come in handy since I'm usually not aware of a low battery until it's almost too late and I'm left frantically searching for a charger. The visual "cool" factor alone would be just as good of a reason to have this as well. ;-)

I could really use an app like this! My Theme doesnt show the battery meter in detail. Its just high, med, low and then it dies and I don't even know where my battery level is. This looks like a precise way to see. Please send one over to me! :D

The flexibility of being able to set your own level for an alert about your battery is an excellent feature. But also the ability to check your level anytime is a definite plus.

I am interested in the charge monitoring because while I work I have a feeling my phone is not really charging via usb. the notifier would tell me if the battery is almost dead before I drive home.

I would use the appearance customization the most. I like to change up the look and feel of my Bold 9700 each day. Please pick me.

I'd have to say the level monitoring and the live icon. Very nice set of features overall!

Definitely customization.
But i think it's a good product for all it's features!

I would defininetly use the monitoring feature, as we all know when the BB battery is too low for radio usage its a bummer. Very cool app since it is customizable, Thanks :)

Probably the customization, sounds enticing

Battery monitoring taken to the next level. Looks like a great tool.

give me a copy ;)

I love these round up blogs. Get to find software I missed during the week like that iFood app. Voriano Battery looks like it will give me actual battery life without having to go through ale EACE

me

Hopefully, I'll win...

Mmweeeeedffggff

I would love to know when my berry is fully charged so as to not overcharge and blow through extra money needlessly. Vorino could potentially save me quite a few extra bucks with this feature. Nice work guys!

I Would love to use the Live Icon. That would be a great benefit to me. Thanks.

The alert letting you know when the battery is low would come in handy. Sometimes I just forget to charge my BB.

I like the charge monitoring the most. I never feel that you really know when the battery is fully charged and am always wondering if I overcharge the battery. Overcharging is bad according to all I read.

Level monitoring for sure.

I've been looking for an app like this.

Because my charger is not in the best location so I like to be notfied when it's fully charged.

the cool appearence of the icon. It will look great on my homescreen!

Great to keep an eye on potential battery leaks. Great stuff!

I would love to have this app. for a more accurate reading of the battery power level and being able to get an alert when its done charging.

i like the idea of being alerted of the battery level, when it is low on battery and when its fully charged. the features of this app should even be integrated into blackberry software versions. great great app, I would love to have a copy, veeeeerrrryyyy useful :) bb rules!

Easier way to monitor battery life/leaks

Could I please have a copy this is soooo convenient

I would like to use the app mostly to notify when the battery is low, since I use my BBerry pretty heavily so this is important.

I will use ALL the features!!!

I use my BB to stream talk radio all day, and so I'm not always watching my battery level. Would love to have an audible alert letting me know when I need to put my BB on the charger. Would save me lots of hassle at the end of the day!

Sign me up!!!!!!! I would love to have this app...The fact that it will give me full battery alerts really draws me in.

I think I will enjoy the battery monitoring and the level of charge monitoring.
cj

great for keeping an eye on accurate battery level.

The Monitoring is something I would use. Didn't know I could over charge! =\

i would say the live icon and the setting the alerts too...

This looks like a really cool app. I would use it primarily for the battery level indicator. I like the fact that it runs in the background and I don't have to give the three finger salute to access it. The customization is also a plus. A very useful app -- I'd love to be a winner of it.

The Vorino Battery Application has features that are going to be very useful: Being able to monitor when your Blackberry is charged whether in the car or at home, being notified when the battery has reached the critical remaining power level. Many times in the past my Blackberry has shut down or quit receiving emails because of low battery and I was not aware of it. The notification of remaining battery level feature will be fantastic. I look forward to using this new application.

i want one!!!

I will enjoy knowing how much battery life I have left. There is nothing more upsetting when you still have errands that need to be run and you only have one bar left.

Appearance customization looks great and thats what i cant wait for :)

Customization. Everyone likes the flexibility to make something their own.

So it can help remind me to plug in and avoid unexpected shut downs.

...definitely the charge monitoring. Way more interested in that iFood App though...

I like the fact that i can tell me when its fallen under a certain percent. and being honest, who doesnt like a free app.

charge monitoring

If i can get it free from crackberry, then i will definitely use it and BTW this is my first post on crackberry as i am a new member in crackberry community and Blackberry mobile.
Hope i get it.

I like most the fully charged battery alert. This will be best for me as most times when i tend to leave the phone charging for longer periods than required, i'd rather know the exact moment when it is fully charged...

I am looking forward to using the overall battery monitoring. I check my percentage often and I think this program will make it much easier.

There are 2 things I am most intrested in. The first being the battery full sensor. Many a times have I left my Storm charging longer than I probably should have. Second is the charting. This will allow me to carefully monitor what drians the most on my battery!!!!! GREAT APP!

I d use it for monitoring battery level and appearance ...great looking app.

I would use the completed charge notifier to prevent having to constantly check to see if my phone fully charged. Also, a notifier when the battery gets to 10% would be useful during times of constant, heavy use.

I like how it can pop up at a set level because I'll know when to be concerned to charge it soon.

I plan on using the battery monitoring and appearace customization features the most. Thanks for the contest.

The live monitoring. My battery keeps dying because I forget to charge it, this can help.

I was just looking for something like this. I spend a lot of time traveling and stuck in places where my phone bounces from coverage to no coverage (basements, etc) which kills my battery. Having alerts and a monitor would be great. Pick me.

That would be a handy little tool!

I'm constantly going into options status. This will put and end to this.

I would use this feature for the fact that I have many hand - held devices charging consecutivly - The alert feature would allow me to power down the surge devices I use faster.

level monitoring is the best feature I think, and would be the number 1 reason I would use it!!

Lets try this again

I have been told that overcharging a battery really kills its lifetime, and I've been known to blow through rechargeables likely due to this. So knowing when my battery is fully charged would be very nice so I don't keep it plugged in too long.

me me me

I would use every feature of the application. The battery monitor would be the most useful with the the other features icing on the cake.

I would say the full alert monitoring would be helpful.

I like the to be able to fully customize this app. Love to have a free copy.

The Vorino Battery is very well complete bythe

the ability to change the appearance of icons

looks sweet

I'm really needing this as my battery on 9000 is draining like crazy and I've turned off everything that eats battery life. My phone is not that old....

Having a constant visual reminder of what the percentage is on the battery, or even a pop-up that tells me it is time to charge will be really helpful. I am constantly checking the About screen to figure out what my remaining battery life is.

thanks for the Giveaway, I like to personalize my BB a lot, the appearance tweaks, icons, is very much appreciated for me.

Charge alert, so I know when to drop it in the charger. Also, Charge monitor, so easy to see at a glance when it is fully charged.

Knowing the exact % of my battery is always a must. I'm always going into options to see that.

I would use the alert customization so that I could "hear" when it is charged or if at work I could set it to "vibrate" and when it is charged it could do it 's vibration move across the desk which would be entertaining.

Definitely more accurate battery power level.. you never know how much you actually have until it's not enough!

The customization of an alert for the battery will be number one on my usage -- I'm always cutting close to the bone and would love to have a little bit more of a heads up. Graphing over a period of time will be the second. Helps me to better understand my usage.

...without a doubt.

I think it would be great to be alerted when your battery power drops to a certain level. It would eliminate panic attacks from the unexpected discovery that your battery is really low and you aren't able to recharge it until later.

I'd like the app for the level monitoring. I use my 8550 so hard that often I have to rotate the battery at least once to my backup battery, so having a handy way to monitor the level would be sweet.

I would most loook forward to using the level monitoring feature. Most BB owners own a car charger, and most probably carry their wall charger with them as well. Imagine having to carry around one less piece of equipment if you know you don't need to!

the alert that lets me know when my bb is fully charged cuz sometimes I forget its charging and I leave it there for hours!

the live icon and the battery level are my favorite thing about this app... very useful, good too everyone

i need in my daily use to know very well the level of the battery. running out when you mostly need it is not a good ideea. so, level monitoring will be the mostly used.
thanks

I love the live icon

This will kkep me from watching the pot that never boils!

I like keeping track of the battery level and messing with all of the cool stuff that come with apps. :)

I need it I want it. Need I say more

this looks cool

Level monitoring is what I would be using most...

I would use the adjustible low battery level.

This sounds like a great app. Being able to get notified by LED or vibration that the battery is running low would be a great enhancement to my cell phone. Hope I win to try it.

I'd see myself using the level monitoring the most. For the past few days, I've found my battery draining a lot faster that normal. Level monitoring would be a great help.

This is a cool battery app. I would like to win.

I would love to have a live icon telling me the % of my battery. I am using a QL macro to get my "info" to find out my percentage.. would love this!

Battery level monitoring, definitely

I would use level monitoring so I can off my data to save the battery at low levels.

The battery alarms would be awesome since my 8830's battery life has become less awesome with age.

I would love to be able to see a more accurate reading of my battery level, so I don't suddenly find myself out of juice.

I need battery monitoring.
I'm always killing my battery.

I would love the low battery alert. I use the xm radio app alot and have completely drained my battery before. I'm a police officer and always need some power in case I need to make a call.

Nice apps.

The ability for the app to notify me when it is need of a charge at a certain percentage or when it is fully charged up! I can save some precious moments from having to look at my BB 9700 all of the time to see if it's at full charge...

Level monitor, for sure. Always on myy bb until " battery toolow for radio use. Messes up my day

I am interrested by the live icon

charge monitoring. since the battery bar doesnt really tell you how much charge you have left..

Level monitor, for sure. Always on myy bb until " battery toolow for radio use. Messes up my day

i will love to have this app for my storm.

i likw the live option to see how much you have left

Love to be reminded when my battery is dying

I hate the BB's segmented battery indicator.

Now I can actually know when the battery is getting low when I'm watching my movies when I'm supposed to be working. I hope it will notify while other apps or programs are running.

I would love to use the level monitoring, that would be awesome for me

it would be nice to know when my phone is fully charged at work, i hate taking it off charge when it is not, a simple led or vibration to tell me it is done would be nice.

i would use the level and charge monitoring. would be cool to be reminded when you can jump back in fully to your crackberrying ...(yeah i used it as a verb)

I would love the charge level monitoring the most. I like to change up the look and feel of my Storm 9550 each day. Hope I can win!!

That battery level alert would be pretty sweet to have!

WOW! Finally an app you can customize to monitor all of your battery conditions dynamically without having to open some clunky, ugly, app that provides a snapshot of your battery condition that may be incomplete, inaccurate, or both. With Vorino Battery I won't have to worry if my battery charge is going to last if I haven't checked the status of my battery, and it lets me take my BlackBerry off the changer immediately once it is fully charged or without wondering if it is overcharged. This will save me both time and money. Wait time is money! The icing on the cake is that this is a great looking app too.

I think the best feature will be the notifications. I get the jitters when my berry gets down to 20% and its only 4pm. At least now I'll know when its down to 25% or 30% and slow down with the usage until I can charge it again

I would use level monitoring. So useful that I can disable data service, wifi, bluetooth to safe battery usage on tight situation

I would love to be able to identify when I load new applications how they impact my battery life - Vorino Battery would be a key tool in this - I am also a bit of a 'crack-head' and I love to play around with the personalisations, so the fact that you can customise so many features is awesome

Thank you for the contest!!

I would use/like the battery level monitoring the most. It seems like I'm always caught off guard by a low battery. This application would give me the ability to make sure that I charge my battery appropriately and not be caught by any surprises.

that would be nice to have

i think the best part about the app is the alarm that i can set to go off when the battery falls below a certain percent. cuz my tour, when its gets between 45% and 30% it starts to die very fast. i also have weird hours at work and school since im a college student. Hope i win.

Live icon with battery percentage would be a great use.

Oh shit, my battery is drained and I am waiting for an important client call! This is why I would like/need a copy of Vorino Battery -- specifically to alert me when my phone battery is down to less than a 20% charge so I can recharge it before it shuts down right in the middle of (or before) an important client call. This is a typical crisis situation for us Blackberry email addicts on the road.

I haven't won anything yet I hope that I win this one

The feature that most appeals to me is being able to set alarms for when my battery has completed charging and alerts for when my battery gets to a certain level. I always forget to charge my phone, so this would definitely come in handy!

What a huge help that would be - I support 50 users and to show them this functionality would be great. Battery life is always an issue and request for improvement - great idea!!!

I'd like to be able to easily be aware of my battery level to know if power drains occur.

Damn i hope i win at least something from all these apps being given away :P

The new Vorino Battery App looks great, as well as being functional, which is important to me. I would like to win the Vorino Battery app to be able to see just exactly how much battery life is left and whether I think I'll need a new one while I'm out. Thanks for the chance to enter the contest!

the full battery notification is what really catches my eye

Definitely the live icon so I don't have to guess how much battery I have by the default picture.

my phone spends a lot of time sitting in pockets, thus the ability to set it to vibrate when battery is low would come in handy.

I like the charge monitoring mainly.. do not want to overcharge...

I would use the charge monitoring feature the most.

I think it is very handy monitor battery usage over period of time, then I know the health of the battery, and also identify the power hungry apps.

I anticipate liking the level monitoring and live icon the most. The currency battery level indicator is too vague and I always have to go under option->status to view my exact charge level. Having this app will be a great help.

I am trying to think what I dont like about it and I cant come up with anything. I think that because you made the app so customizable it would appeal to everyone! Being able to change its appearance is important, But I think that the custom alert setting is the most desireable feature, if I had to pick one.

For me, it's the detailed battery level. I need a good estimate of the time left since I use it all day at work. Sometimes ALT+SHIFT+H isn't as handy.

Thanks for the contest.

thanks for the opportunity to win this great app.

Its what ive been looking for! The level monitoring and the live icon would be great.

Count me in

Hope to win

Would love to try Vorino battery

The charge monitor so I don't overcharge.

I think when the battery gets to a lower state, this app will appears to try and prolong battery life. Thats the #1 feature I am looking for. So lets hope this happens!

I'll take one

That customizeable ring tone for low battery is the #1 reason why I want to win this bad boy!

that would be very useful

count me in for a free app

Wow cool me wants

That battery app would be great. It would keep me better informed on when I need to swap out my battery before it actually dies.

I think the thing I'd find most useful is the notification of when my battery has dropped to a certain percent.

Charge me up...

to have this on my phone

thanks :)

I like the charge monitoring the most.
I will use the alerting feature the most,
I like knowing that Vorino battery will alert me when my battery falls below a certain percentage of charge.

I like that you can be notified of when the battery power drops to a certain percentage

The theme I currently use doesn't display the battery level accurately...this would be uber helpful!

I think just knowing how to make my battery last longer will make this app very appealing. Hope I win!

i would definitely use this for the fact that i could monitor my battery easily and see when it is charged without over charging it.

count me in for the vorino battery app

I would love the battery utility notifying me when the battery reached a certain level. This would let me know when my phone is about to enter the "no-radio" state. If I am out and in a no-radio state, that puts me in a fix not being able to call, msg, email.

i need this

i WOULD LIKE THIS APP BECAUSE IF I SEE THE PERCENT OF THE BATTERY I DONT HAVE TO GO TO THE OPTIONS AND ETC. I THINK IT WOULD BE A VERY USEFUL APP TO HAVE

I would love the live charging monitoring

Hope I win!!!

This would be awesome!

I want this!! I can then watch my battery level!

I am most interested in the better operation conserving battery use, also like the look of the monitor. I would be proud to recieve a free copy of this application for my curve.

i think being able to change the appearance would be the most exciting feature for me.

The best thing would definitely be the monitoring of battery level

Battery monitoring

meow meow moew ima kitty kat :3

sweet.

level monitoring is important to me .. i never want to be caught with a dead battery

Great to check the battery life :)

I would like to have this app.

Thanks!

Which feature of Vorino Battery do you anticipate using/liking the most, and why?

Would like to be able to monitor the level of my battery in a more efficient way. Thanks!

Please Crackberr pick me.

charge monitoring sounds great because I'm a little ocd about knowing what's going on!

Not only monitoring battery state on my new BB, but now the 14 year won't be able to use the excuse that the battery was dead because he didn't know charge state. Little does he know Dad was 14 once upon a time. HAAA

This looks very funky! Need to get my hands on it. Pick me!
