Since some of the bluetooth headset come with the battery reporting function for iPhones... is there/can someone write a widget for Android to show those readings on the home screen?

Is there an app or is it possible to develop one that can display the battery life of your bluetooth device on your phone? I use bluetooth headphones at the gym and cant easily keep track of the life in them. If a dev can do this, it would be great in the notification bar instead of widget. Thanks.
Hey guys have a very specific issue.
I have a galaxy note 3 with sprint. My car is subaru impresa 2013.
The issue is when my phone connects to the car media through blue tooth. When I turn on my car the phone pairs automatically. And the music starts playing right away. The phone determine which app to use based on a which app I used to play music last time. Right now I using the Samsung music app and Google Music app.
Issue 1
When the music is playing occasionally you hear a crackling noise for a second. Which kind of disturbs the flow of the music. I monitored the phone to see if it was any sort of notifications that would trigger the interruption but no notifications happen at that time. I also went to blue tooth settings and only enabled the media Audio profile. That did not seem to fix the issue. This lead to a the second issue.
issue 2
When the phone is playing music while connected to the car media it would stop the music and not play. At that point the phones home button stops working. So you cannot go back to the main screen unless you restart (pull the battery the power button does not work either) the phone or use the back button to the right of home button.
Issue 3
When the phone connects to the car media automatically car media does not read the song info. For example artist and title. I have to restart the blue tooth in order for that info to appear on the car media screen. This also presents you from changing songs from your wheel buttons.. basically if you can see the song info on the car screen then you can switch songs. If you cannot see the song info on the car screen then you can't use the controls to switch songs.
Please if any one know what's going on I would appreciate your input... I have few more days to swap the phone if this is hardware issue.
so here is something odd. I'm running oxygenos 2.1. I have a Bluetooth speaker and when I connect to it, my volume level on the phone remains fixed at about two thirds of max. the icon displayed is also the cast screen icon. this happens when I use spotifyto stream music. now if I switch to say tunein radio, it switches to a Bluetooth icon and I can control the volume as I wish. this is obviously a software glitch but has anyone else experienced this? I want to make the volume lower or higher and can't, hah.
I use Bluetooth earphones and With the release of Bluetooth 5.0 with the s8 does it show the battery percentage of the earphones in the status bar like the iPhone does?
i connected to a jbl xtreme and several other bt speakers and havent noticed the percentage showing up, but i never really looked for it too

Okay guess I have to install a 3rd party app ! Thanks!
The v20 displays the battery of whatever device it is connected to and it does not have Bluetooth 5.0. I believe that feature is something built into the software by the manufacturer as some devices with Android have this feature and some don't, ours in specific
Hello,
I have a new icon on my display screen for the LG V20 at the top. I just switched from the voyager edge to the 3200 (dying battery) I notice now I have a BT icon with a note next to it on the top right and 2 next to it on the bottom left of the BT icon. Not sure what it is telling me. It is a single ear piece so it isn't going to do stereo.

Think it's the symbol that pops up when you have 2 different devices connected at same time. Like a headset and a car stereo.
