Mobile device usage is increasing in daily life and almost everybody carries one. The devices now have more processing power, battery, memory, and a big display. However, they have limited battery lives. Software developers should focus on optimizing applications and systems by using resources and sensors efficiently to reduce their energy consumption. Developers lack the knowledge to enhance the energy efficiency of applications as they are not aware of their energy demands during development. To calculate the power consumption of a system, various third-party power measurement tools are on the market. The selection of an appropriate tool is challenging. The developers must know the power consumption of their application to create and optimize a sustainable product. In this paper, we review a wide range of power measuring tools for mobile devices. We will provide a short introduction to these tools, how they are implemented, and compare their capabilities and performance. We will detail the accuracy, usability, limitations, and challenges of using these tools.

移动设备在日常生活中的使用越来越多，几乎每个人都随身携带。这些设备现在拥有更强的处理能力、电池、内存和大显示屏。但是，它们的电池寿命有限。软件开发人员应专注于通过有效地使用资源和传感器来优化应用程序和系统，以减少能源消耗。开发人员缺乏提高应用程序能源效率的知识，因为他们在开发过程中没有意识到他们的能源需求。为了计算系统的功耗，市场上有各种第三方功率测量工具。选择合适的工具具有挑战性。开发人员必须了解其应用的功耗，才能创建和优化可持续产品。在本文中，我们回顾了各种用于移动设备的功率测量工具。我们将简要介绍这些工具、它们是如何实现的，并比较它们的功能和性能。我们将详细说明使用这些工具的准确性、可用性、局限性和挑战。
