Hello,

I’m requesting auto-connection for the hardware-observe interface for my snap battely.

  • name: battely
  • description: Battely is a battery monitoring application that helps you track your device’s battery health and receive notifications about battery status. The application supports auto-start functionality to monitor your battery continuously.

  • interfaces:
    • hardware-observe:
      • request-type: auto-connection
      • reasoning: Battely is a battery monitoring application that displays battery status and sends notifications about battery health. The app needs read-only access to /sys/class/power_supply/ to retrieve battery percentage and charging status. Without this interface, the core functionality of the app (battery monitoring) does not work. The hardware-observe interface provides read-only access to hardware information, which is exactly what’s needed for battery monitoring.
