Show battery percentage on Android. How to Show Android Battery Percentage in Status Bar

09/02/2019 for beginners | mobile devices

On many Android phones and tablets, the battery charge in the status bar is simply displayed as “fullness level,” which is not very informative. In this case, there is usually a built-in option to enable the display of battery percentage in the status bar, without third-party applications or widgets, but this function is hidden (except for the latest versions of the system).

This instruction tells you how to enable display of battery charge percentage using the built-in tools of Android 4, 5, 6 and 7 (tested on Android 5.1 and 6.0.1 when writing), separately - on the latest Android 9 Pie and newer, on Samsung phones Galaxy and also about a simple third-party application that has one single function - it switches a hidden system setting of the phone or tablet that is responsible for displaying charging percentages.

Battery percentage on Android using built-in system tools (System UI Tuner)

The first method usually works on almost any Android devices with current versions of the system, where the option to enable percentage charging is not available in the settings. Moreover, the method works even in cases where the manufacturer has installed its own launcher, different from the “pure” android.

The essence of the method is to enable the “Show battery level as a percentage” option in the hidden System UI Tuner settings, having previously enabled these same settings. To do this you will need to complete the following steps:

  1. Open the notification shade so that you can see the settings button (gear).
  2. Press and hold the gear until it starts to spin, then release it.
  3. The Settings menu will open with a notification that “System UI Tuner has been added to the Settings menu.” Keep in mind that steps 2-3 are not always successful the first time (you should not release immediately when the gear starts rotating, but after about a second or two).
  4. Now, at the very bottom of the settings menu, open the new “System UI Tuner” item.
  5. Turn on the "Show battery level as a percentage" option.

Done, now the status bar on your Android tablet or phone will show the charge as a percentage.

Using the Battery Percent Enabler app

If for some reason you cannot enable System UI Tuner, then you can use the third-party application Battery Percent Enabler (or “Battery with Percent” in the Russian version), which does not require special permissions or root access, but reliably enables the display of charge percentages batteries (moreover, the same system setting that we changed in the first method is simply changed).

Procedure:

1. Launch the application and oh.

2. You immediately see that the battery percentage has begun to be displayed in the top line (at least that’s how it was for me), but the developer writes that you need to reboot the device (completely turn it off and on).

Ready. At the same time, after you have changed the setting using the application, you can delete it; the charge percentage will not disappear anywhere (but you will have to reinstall it if you need to turn off the charging percentage display).

That's all. As you can see, it’s very simple and I think there shouldn’t be any problems.

  1. Go to Settings - Notifications. On the next screen, click on the “Status Bar” item.
  2. Turn on the “Show charging percentage” option.

After this, your Samsung Galaxy will show the charge percentage next to the battery icon in the top right corner of the screen as required.

You can write to each of them, suggest or clarify something with someone with whom you have already communicated.
