Welcome to Android Central! Sorry if I'm being dense, but what's the malfunction? It looks like that 3rd party battery app is just recording a log of the battery level and the time it was noted. I see that it ticked up 1% at one point, then back down, but that's not too unusual--there's probably some minor fluctuation in the readings from time to time. It would've been much weirder if it ticked up 5-10%.
 
Can you please post the standard battery screen shot usage? That actually tells us more.

That issue happens everyday at least once. And while I was charging today, i noticed this too, i didn't unplugged the charger but it still appears like this !!

Battery is draining fast today, it used to take 20% for 1hour of screen on time

Charge up to 100%, then let it drain to 20-30% with normal usage, without charging in between. Then show us:

1. The main Settings>Battery screen.
2. The fullscreen battery graph screen (which shows Awake time and Cell Signal Strength).
3. The Screen category (to see total Screen On time).
4. The Cell Standby category, if present (to see Time Without Signal).
 
This is insane, yesterday, it didn't fully charge stopped at 85% i have to turn off then it came full, i did a factory data reset, then it happens like this again

What charger are you using? Have you drained the battery to 0% before? Did you install anything after the factory reset besides this BatteryBot Pro?

I found this on Motorola's Forums: https://forums.motorola.com/posts/c9e195ae15

1. Don't use a non-standard charger. The safety circuitry may be substandard (or non-existent) and overheat the phone and damage the battery

2. Extreme temps will impact battery life during a cycle

3. Don't let it run down until it dies (everyone has had this happen a few times but don't make it a habit)

4. When the battery says 100% it still needs to "top off" by trickle-charging for a few hours


Edit: Also, before this problem, how often do you charge the phone? Every night? When it get's down to a certain percentage?
 
You could try to re-calibrate the battery. To do this let the phone run out of battery and turn off on its own. Then charge it but do not turn it back on until the battery is full. Maybe that will help.
