This really goes for any android device, but since I'm on my S7, I'll post it here. Are there any ways to get a detailed readout on the status of your battery? Specifically battery life and health(not battery life as in % till recharge), something that can give you an estimate of how good of shape your battery is in? I have GSam, but honestly, what it tells me I can find in settings, and it's pretty much a bloatware app to me that doesn't really do anything.

Charge cycle counter can tell you how many charge cycles you've had, which can be an indication of battery health.

Also accubattery seems to do a good job of determining battery life/health. I've also got an S7, it charges fully in under an hour and I can't even get 4 hours screen time anymore. Battery seems rather worn out to me, after using accubattery for a few days it's estimating I only have about 66% of my original capacity.
