[Bug 1296431] Re: Phone doesn't alert user of critical power situations

 

Specification updated.
<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Power?action=diff&rev2=63&rev1=61>
<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Power?action=diff&rev2=66&rev1=65>

I'll insert my usual misgiving here about non-indicator-related
notifications being provided by indicator code. We should have low-power
notifications regardless of whether indicator-power is running or even
exists.

** Changed in: indicator-power (Ubuntu)
       Status: In Progress => Triaged

** Changed in: indicator-power (Ubuntu)
     Assignee: Matthew Paul Thomas (mpt) => (unassigned)

** Description changed:

  The phone doesn't currently alert the user when the battery is critical.
  This leads to power loss at times and the user doesn't know it's about to happen or had happened.
  e.g. during a call, or while listening to music. Also if the phone is sat on the desk unplugged from power connection.
