Note: Certain Bluetooth devices do not report battery level until Bluez's experimental features are enabled in system. Check Readme for details.

The extension also supports multiple device-specific modes to provide detailed battery reporting and device controls, depending on the capabilities exposed by the device:

UPower: Devices such as Logitech Lightspeed keyboards and mice that report battery levels through UPower.

GATT Battery Service: Devices that expose one or more battery levels via the standard GATT Battery Service (BAS), such as ZMK-based split keyboards.

Socket Mode: Provides multiple battery levels and advanced device controls—such as Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) and other supported features using a custom socket-based protocol. Supported devices:

  • AirPods
  • Beats earbuds / headphones
  • Sony earbuds / headphones.
