Is there any way I can get my iPhone 12 Mini to display battery charge percentage? Even my old SE did this!!

There’s no option to display the percentage all the time. It was removed by Apple some time ago. You can not see the % when you swipe down the for the quick menu.

As others have said Apple currently doesn’t allow you to see your percentage in the status bar.

if you want this feature back please fill in Apple’s feedback form and request it or at least the option

Apple has lost the plot just give it back to us and let us remove the ram home bar; I love apple but I’m starting to get sick of there little issues like this, no reason even with the new phones to let us have the number back

What annoys people here, is that they make the notch smaller on the 13's, yet still do not include the percentage in the extra space then made available.... WHY EVEN BOTHER?? :rolleyes:

Patience... for what? Why would they not include it in iOS 15's release, when it's hardly coding of the century to do given the figure has been worked out and already displayed when swiping down the corner – all they have to do is copy said figure to the position it was in previously near the battery symbol.
What, we need to wait til 15.8 for that coding 'work' to be done. :rolleyes:
