The Apple iPhone battery percentage- an essential feature that had been missing even in the new line-up of the flagship iPhones has just returned in the latest iOS 16 Beta. With the introduction of the new iPhones, one of the most sought-after improvements were a smaller notch and the return of the favoured battery indicator. Although the former has been improved upon, the latter is still the same but that could soon change with the upcoming iOS 16.

According to TechCrunch, Apple has brought back the battery percentage on the iPhone with its latest iOS 16 Beta 5. The battery percentage option was introduced with the iPhone 3GS but was removed with the launch of the iPhone X back in 2017, which favoured the battery indicator.

However, you should be cautious. Apple's Beta program is there to test for any bugs or glitches in iOS 16. So, you can expect a wide variety of issues such as performance issues, app glitches, unusual battery drain and more.

Although the battery percentage feature has been brought back in Beta, it will be interesting to see if Apple keeps it in the final build of iOS 16. Apple does not keep every feature it tests with the Beta versions of iOS. However, since the demand for the battery percentage has been high since the feature got removed, it is likely that Apple keeps it in the final build of the iOS 16 as well.
