Has anyone noticed that the Battery Saver Live Tile actually shows the current battery level of the phone? Excuse me if it's a well known feature.

Yup, its a new thingamajigger that appeared when Battery Saver became its own app.

worth noting that, assuming I'm correct, disabling the Battery Saver background task reduces its liveliness.
I could be perceiving it wrong though.

I think you have it right. Mine stopped updating and when I looked into I found that the background task was disabled. I re-enabled it and lo and behold it worked again! :smile:

OK... I can't make my battery saver a Live Tile. It's always allowed. I'm on the 8.1 Dev Preview.

Help...

​Also can you make it report to lockscreen after it goes live?
