iOS 16 Battery Percentage Won’t Show on These iPhone Models!
iOS 16 is nowavailable for allwith loads of new features like the personalized Lock Screen, Focus filters for the Focus mode, new iMessage features, and much more. This also brings back the battery percentage in the status bar, a pleasant entry indeed! However, this won’t reach all iPhone models, as confirmed by Apple.
No Battery Percentage for These iPhones!
Apple, via a recentsupport document, has confirmed that theiPhone XR, iPhone 11, iPhone 12 mini, and iPhone 13 mini won’t support iOS 16’s Battery Percentage feature. This means that these models will continue to show the battery percentage in the Control Center, which was an option for all iPhones with a notch up until now.
The iPhone SE, the iPhone 8 or earlier, and even the iPads showed the battery percentage in the status bar from the beginning.
That said, the iPhone XS series, the iPhone 11 Pro, the iPhone 11 Pro Max, the iPhone 12, the iPhone 12 Pro, the iPhone 12 Pro Max, the iPhone 13, the iPhone 13 Pro, the iPhone 13 Pro Max, and the iPhone 14 series will now show the battery percentage right on the home screen without requiring users to specifically get to the Control Center for the purpose.
In order to enable this, you are simply required tohead to the Battery section under the Settingsand enable the Battery Percentage option. With this, the white battery icon will include the battery percentage and will remain filled until the battery is about 20%.
