That only works if you use is highly predictable.
If you’ve barely touched your phone all day, your phone might think you have about 6 hours of battery left by the end of your working day, but that’s only true if that little use continues.
If you pull a 180 on it’s prediction and begin to catch some Pokémon that number plummets hard and becomes entirely irrelevant.
A battery percentage level between 0 and 100 is by far the most sensible metric.
Or have it dynamically update based on current usage, you running 4k video streams? 3 hours remaining, just doing some web browsing? 12 hours remaining. The will actually be useful, because if I’m using my phone heavily then the 80% won’t last me as long as just being on standby, but a death-o-clock will tell me on current useage when the battery is going to die. The fun stuff, this is already present in your phone OS, just display it on the notification bar with an xH (and M when we are running out of time) instead of 69%.
