How to obtain extensive battery info in iOS?

Question

I\'m wondering is it possible to receive information about battery like: capacity (mA), voltage (V), cycle count within iOS?

I know UIDevice class, but battery level

Answer 1

Look at the JSystemInfoKit library.

You want to import the IOKit framework first (get the .framework file from here /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/IOKit.framework ) and IOKit headers (get those files from here) in your iOS project.

Here you can find the methods you need to use to get extensive battery information.

Plus, IOPSCopyPowerSourcesInfo (from IOPowerSources.h) returns a NSDictionary with more information like battery health.
