Provides usage statistics about your iDevice and recommendations to improve the battery life; lets you compare how you fare with others across the globe.

 

Battery-saving apps for Androids tell you when a certain process is eating up too much RAM; and with its limited battery life, god knows the platform needs such tools. I never imagined iOS getting such an app though, since there's no true multitasking on the platform — most of the app data is kept in the flash storage instead of RAM. The Carat app, however, promises to provide recommendations to improve the battery life of your iDevice. It basically tells you what's draining the most power, though it doesn't give out precise usage stats. When a user opens the app, data about your device is sent in the background to Carat's cloud servers, which will revert with results and remedies within a week. The app also intros something known as the J-Score. This is basically a percentile figure that tells you how your device has fared compared to other similar gadgets out there. For example, a J-Score of 75 means you're doing better than 75% of other Carat users out there.

Privacy is maintained, as the app doesn't collect personal data — merely usage-related info. To make things transparent, the app will let you know what information is being collected. Users can share their experiences on popular social networks as well. It might not work as well as those task-killer apps on Android, but considering that there aren't many such tools in the iTunes App Store, Carat is a catch.

NOTE: Due to the immense popularity of the app, its servers are currently struggling to keep up with the user load. Therefore, results might take a lot longer than a week to reach you. Patience is a virtue, and don't look a gift horse in the mouth.
