I think that Onyx should enable some kind of low battery popup notification.
I knew my battery was low, about 20% to be precise, but I thought that would be more than sufficient for writing a short composition in the native note taking app. It wasn't. Guess I'm a slower writer than I thought.
Suddenly, my screen changed, telling me to charge my device. Naturally, I plugged my note into a wall charger. I then found myself back at the home screen.
When I navigated my way back to the note taking app, my composition was gone. I hadn't been saving as I went along. Lesson learned.
From now on when writing or sketching, I will save the document periodically, particularly if I know my battery is getting low. That way, hopefully, I will not lose everything.
However, had there been a popup message warning me to save or close any open files and connect my device to a power source, this loss of information could have easily been avoided.
Most of my other devices warn me when they are getting dangerously low. Had just assumed that the Note would do the same. Hopefully, they will enable such notifications in an update or enlighten me on how to enable such a feature if it already exists.
It wasn't a catastrophic loss for me as I was able to recall most of what I'd written. But it could have been. So beware of how much juice is left in your battery before undertaking any important note taking functions.
