SocketSense

Plugged in, buzzed, walked away — but the socket was off? We've got your back.

SocketSense monitors your charger connection in the background and alerts you the moment it detects a false charge signal — so you never wake up to a dead phone again.

How it works

Most chargers briefly trick your phone into showing the charging animation and vibration, even when the wall socket switch is off. SocketSense catches that false positive and alerts you immediately, so you know to flip the switch before walking away.

Features

🔔 Instant alerts when a false charge is detected

🔋 Low battery alerts with a custom threshold

⏱ Charging session stats — duration, speed, and battery gained

🔊 Custom alert sounds — use any audio file from your device

⚙️ Adjustable sensitivity to match your needs

🚀 Auto-starts on reboot — always running when you need it

Privacy first

SocketSense has no internet permission. It collects zero data, stores nothing remotely, and works entirely on your device. What happens on your phone, stays on your phone.

Works best if you:

Use a switched wall socket to charge your phone

Charge overnight and rely on a full battery in the morning

Have ever woken up to find your phone never charged

Requires Android 8.0 or above. For best results, disable battery optimization for SocketSense in your device settings.
