Android 10 brought in some visual changes in the status bar and quick settings panel, one of which is the disappearance of battery percentage from the top of the quick settings panel. Now, the phone shows an estimated time until which your phone will stay alive without requiring another charge. However, there are two workarounds that you can do to get the battery percent back in your status bar or quick settings and we will be explaining both of those methods so that you can know the exact battery percent left on your smartphone.
How to Bring Back Battery Percentage on Status Bar
1. Open the Settings app of your phone running Android 10 and head to the Battery section.
2. Inside Battery settings, you will find a toggle named Battery percentage that will allow you to view the battery percentage in the status bar.
3. Switch the toggle and you will be seeing the remaining battery percent right on the status bar in the top right corner of your phone.
