I had initially thought the 10% intervals was a function of the default Kobo apps, but I've installed 2 other battery measurement apps (Battery Monitor Widget Pro and Battery Notifier (Big Text)) and this behaviour is consistent:
- Battery Notifier (Big Text) also only displays 10% intervals
- Battery Monitor Widget Pro, with logging enabled, shows a step-shaped graph, rather than a steady decline.
I've seen reports of some other android phones also using the 10% increments. I also wish it used 1% increments!
