iOS 16 to Come With Battery Percentage in Status Bar For All Compatible iPhone Models - Check Out The List
Apple’s new battery percentage visual change in the status bar is more than a welcome addition and many users have been wanting it for a long time. Currently, you have to swipe down from the top-right portion of the screen to access the Control Center in order to see the percentage of battery left. Now, the information will be available right on the Home screen. As mentioned earlier, not all iPhone models currently support the battery percentage representation in the status bar.

If you are unfamiliar, check out all the iPhone models that currently support iOS 16’s new battery percentage in status bar.
