I need to know the battery state in my watch app, but I can not set isBatteryMonitoringEnabled
to true.
Is there anything else I should do beforehand? Or rules on where to change the property?
It looks like on watchOS and UIKit you could set up battery monitoring like so.
@IBOutlet weak var battery: WKInterfaceLabel!
@IBAction func getLevel() {
let device = WKInterfaceDevice.current()
device.isBatteryMonitoringEnabled = true
let level = device.batteryLevel
// Do something with the battery monitoring.
print("Battery level is: \(level)")
battery.setText("Level: \(level)")
}
On the watchOS simulator it appears battery level monitoring will always return a value of -1.0, you'll need to run this on an actual device.
Here's a link to the documentation.
