    how to show battery percentage

    I've been searching and looking at the settings. Isn't there a way to show the battery percentage on the status bar at the top of the screen? Seems obvious this should be present but I can't find it.

    Here's what I found in a search - a very old request - https://windowsphone.uservoice.com/.../3543458-battery-percentage-at-the-status-bar

    Here's what I mean - In the picture below, you see my home screen. The battery percentage is not shown. I see a somewhat descriptive icon of a bettery, but would like to see the percentage.

    In order to see percentage, I have to actively swipe down as in the picture below -

    By comparison, here's the home screen on my older Android-based screen. You can see the percentage of the battery next to the icon.

    I'm assuming iOS does this also -

    Ideas?

    TIA!

    The Battery Icon is showing the wrong battery percentage level on windows 10.

    Hi, I am having the same issue. I also am on the Windows 10 Creators Update (Build 16215). I tried both steps, and while they are a band-aid, they do not fix this issue. I have a Lenovo Yoga 910 if that helps at all. When I follow those steps, it corrects the
    battery percentage, but only for that instance. It still does not work correctly after that.

    The Battery Icon is showing the wrong battery percentage level on windows 10.

    For me works only connecting or unpluging a charger. It shows an actual battery percentage and then it gets stack again.
