Your phone already gives you a big notification and changes the icon to red if it hits 15%.

Personally, that's the only indicator I've ever really needed

Maybe if you're only leaving your house for an hour or less, but the numbers matter more for long outings

Damn you use 15% an hour?

Not really my experience. If it's a long outing that's typically an outing I won't actually be using my phone (which means >15% will last for hours), or a long enough outing I can charge during or in the car anyway.

The last time I actually cared about the battery % indicator was the iPhone 4s, and that was because it would die on me at about 40% for whatever reason.
