How To Switch On Battery Percentage On Iphone 11 Pro

If you are upgrading to the iPhone 11 or iPhone 11 Pro from the iPhone 6s, iPhone 7, or iPhone 8, you are likely going to find the lack of a battery indicator on the status bar a bit irritating. While the new iPhones come with improved battery life, that is not going to be enough for most people to not keep a tab on the battery life of their device.

In case you are looking to show the remaining battery percentage on the status bar of your iPhone 11 or iPhone 11 Pro, prepare to be disappointed. Due to the notch, there's just not enough space on the right edge of the screen to put the battery percentage. So Apple has figured out the next best solution. The battery percentage is hidden in the Control Center.
