Apple to bring back battery percentage status icon to iPhone with this new update, but there’s a catch

iOS 16 will seemingly bring back the battery percentage status indicator to iPhone, which Apple had stopped showing several years ago. Previously, the battery percentage was shown on the left side of the icon, but it has been moved to the centre. This new position allows users to see the battery percentage in the status bar. Prior to this, the company had removed the battery percentage from the iPhone X. Users had a hard time remembering the exact number, but with the update, the issue will be fixed.

Currently, the battery percentage is only available to the beta testers of iOS 16. To see it, users have to update to the latest version of the operating system. However, even after they have done so, they will not be able to see it. To turn on the feature, users have to go to the Settings, and Battery, and then flip on the toggle.
