BatteryWatch is a sleek, modern KDE Plasma 6 widget designed to monitor your device's power ecosystem. Keep track of battery levels for your Bluetooth or wireless devices, like headphones, mouse, keyboard, and game controllers, all from a single, beautiful interface right there in your tray bar!
- Unified Monitoring: See the battery status of all connected devices in one place.
- Smart Display: A minimal tray icon that expands into a detailed list when clicked, and automatically hides when no devices are connected - no wasted space when nothing to show.
- Bluetooth Control: Disconnect Bluetooth devices directly from the widget.
- Customizable Visibility: Easily hide or show specific devices from the system tray to keep your workspace clutter-free.
- Right-click on your desktop or panel.
