Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for providing a user with feedback regarding power consumption in a battery-operated electronic device. In one aspect, a method performed by data processing apparatus includes identifying, using the data processing apparatus, usage of a hardware component of a battery-operated electronic device that includes the data processing apparatus, attributing the usage of the hardware component to the hardware component or to a software application that uses the hardware component, recording, using the data processing apparatus, a power consumption resulting from the usage, and presenting power consumption feedback to a user using the data processing apparatus. The power consumption feedback identifies the hardware component or the software application of the electronic device and the power consumption resulting from the usage.

Providing a user with feedback regarding power consumption in battery-operated electronic devices

The subject matter of this specification can be embodied in, among other things, a computer-implemented method that includes identifying one or more previous locations for a mobile electronic device; identifying a plurality of possible travel routes for the mobile electronic device; determining possible locations for the mobile electronic device along the possible travel routes based on determined travel speed information for areas near the previous locations; and providing information for one or more indications of the possible locations to a user.
