Review: Scroll Clock combines an iOS clock with battery-operation meters

Track the time, date, and the current status of your battery on any iOS device.

ScrollClock offers a combination of timekeeping and battery meter tracking for your iOS device in a sleek-looking display. The app has varying levels of polish depending on what screen you're viewing, but generally it is a useful tool if you need to see the exact amount of battery life you have left and how long it will last against the time at that moment.

When you open ScrollClock it will display the time, date, and your current battery percentage. Swipe the screen and you can see a list of every function your device performs and the battery life left in that mode. So you can see quickly how long your device will last if you make a phone call, play music, or surf the Internet. The screens have starkly different levels of graphical polish, but everything is fast and accurate when compared to similar tools. You can change a few of the settings for how the time and battery meter information is displayed; but generally speaking, there are only a few customization options in this app.

If you are interested in maintaining a keen eye on the current battery life of your device as well as the time at which you checked the battery meter, then ScrollClock can be a useful app. Like most clock apps, it has some redundant features, but it also looks very good in its basic clock mode, so it is an attractive addition to your device.
