About LifeMeter (Free) APK
Table Of Contents
Description
This is the free version of LifeMeter. Please read everything below for instructions and important notes*.We at The Food Sucks are of the opinion that notions of battery life do not have to be measured with grim clinical concern. It should be FUN. Even nostalgic! Introducing LifeMeter, a widget that draws inspiration from decades of classic gaming fun and brings it to your Android device to enjoy. It takes the age-old iconic digital heart symbolizing LIFE and applies that feature to your Android device's battery. We also didn't merely draw inspiration from the meters of classic 8-bit games like Legend of Zelda and Metroid, we wanted to demonstrate that LifeMeter is capable of a modern styling too, and what better example than the health bar from a game like Skyrim!***
To make your experience special we made it *highly* configurable, because personalizing is fun and rewarding. Just take a look at the gallery to see not only the variety of meters offered, but how you can customize most of them to your heart's content! The widgets currently comes in 1x1 and 2x1 sizes, and even offers unique meters exclusive to each size to make your experience a little more fun and interesting. Heart widgets can be tweaked; rows/columns can be adjusted, scale them if you feel they might be too big. You can align them within the widget's frame (top, lower right, center, etc). You can configure a LifeMeter widget to launch an app when tapped, or show some detailed battery info instead. You can adjust how often updates happen - from once a minute to as little as once an hour if you want to conserve battery life - though LifeMeter does not use a persistent service; When the phone goes into sleep mode, no updates are issued to your widget, preserving battery health.
*Do not force the install to your SD Card, install it to internal memory only!
**If you use a TASK KILLER (you shouldn't) like ATK, STK, ETK, etc, you MUST configure it to *EXEMPT*, or else it will terminate the process and your widget will appear to be stuck/not updating!
We've tested extensively on multiple devices with great results. Should your device have any trouble with it, we'll do our best to address the issues, just contact us.
We'd like to add even more meters in future updates, and we're open to suggestions - send us an email!
**Some meters are available only in the full version.

TO PLACE A LIFEMETER WIDGET ON YOUR HOME SCREEN (Android 4.0+, ICS+):
* Please note, at the moment (08/2012) there is a bug with *Jellybean* that may require you to REBOOT your device to install widgets from a newly installed app. You'd only need to do this once.
1. Navigate to your APP Drawer. (It may be an icon of 6 little dots or squares, on your home screen)
2. Select the "WIDGETS" tab.
3. Locate LifeMeter 1x1 or 2x1 - you may have to swipe side to side if your list is large.
4. *Long-press* one of the LifeMeter widgets until your Home Screen appears, then let go.

6. Show your friends and family!

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

3 ★I like that there's a lot of options for size shape and style, however itdoesn't seem to fit my screen right. No matter how big I stretch it itstill looks teeny tiny on my screens 6 tile wide set up. Other life barwidgets can be enlarged to fit my screen better. Why are people postingreviews for the full version here when this is the free version?
3 ★Isn't accurate at all. Just installed it yesterday, gave it a night to charge...was stuck on 2 hearts all night? The fuq. Fix, and I will reinstall immediately. Looks amazing with my Zelda wallpaper tho :p for now, uninstalling.
5 ★I would prefer maybe 1 more alternate color besides gray, even a pinker red. But I would not have noticed that I wanted this, if I hadn't been using the app for a super long time. Which I have been, cuz its awesome.
5 ★I can't see this having any real use as the battery meter and percentage remaining are always displayed in the top bar of almost every phone. Maybe if you could replace that icon with these or something, I don't know, just seems pointless but the details like battery temp are nice I can say that.
5 ★Works perfectly on my phone (galaxy mini), goes awesome with my zelda wallpaper :D it brings back so many good memories of playing the game :)
4 ★Just needs life meter sounds like critical battery is low health Zelda and if you are fully charged it's the new heart container sound and maybe some animations like guy below me mentioned about fairies?
5 ★The only thing that would make thus app better is if a fairy circled around the meter while the phone was charging. Great app love it.
5 ★Made me wanna run out and buy the Zelda games (Ocarina of time and Majoras Mask) plus the newest Wii ones. Love it.
3 ★The space around it doesn't need to be so large. It takes up unnecessary room.
3 ★I'm indifferent as of right now. But, I DO agree that it should have the "low life" sound. AND! Here's a neat idea: make it so it can replace the normal battery meter of a person's device if they choose. That way, it won't have to be so much of a widget. It'll be more authentic like that. And, I know free apps are usually for testing the waters for a fuller version, but, there ARE people who can't buy apps like they are going out of style. I'm one of them. So, I and many others find it VERY UNFAIR to find a free, cute, and nifty app for a favorite fandom, only to find out it only has two or three things it can do and everything else is indefinitely locked. Please keep this in mind when making apps.
5 ★Uninstalling... but only because I'm going to pay and get the full version. Free version is great, but I want that Skyrim health bar that comes with the paid version! :)
5 ★Please add a widget that looks like the mana bar from Skyrim or the magic bottles from 3D Dot Game Heroes for the WiFi connection or 3G signal strength. Thanks!!!!
