There was a really nice bug in the first release that would prevent your best unplug time from being saved and displayed. Unfortunately I went on a whirlwind vacation to the east coast for a week and was unable to publish V1.2 (that hopefully fixes this bug).
Additionally, if the widget crashes (or stops responding) when you install the update, try the following:
- Uninstall widget, and reinstall widget
- Uninstall widget, restart device, reinstall widget.
BatteryLastUnplugged 1.2 is available in the Android Market today.

Introducing: Battery Last Unplugged (Android)
My first public Android application, so be gentle...
I am always very paranoid about my battery usage on my smart phones. I am constantly checking the Battery settings screen on my Android phone that shows battery usage, and the time since it was last unplugged.
So over the course of a few days here and there, I threw together a simple Homescreen Widget:
The first line is the current AC status of the device (Discharging/Charging). The second line is the current time since being unplugged, and the last line is your best run time since being unplugged.
I would like to implement more features, such as recording all of your unplugged times and plotting them.
Available in the market for free:
