There is another cooler and better way to see battery percentage on iPhone X. On the locked or unlocked screen of your iPhone X, simply swipe from left to right. This will bring ‘Add Widget Screen’. Here, swipe down and see the BATTERIES widget at last. This will show you battery percentage of your iPhone X and connected Bluetooth devices. Unlike the current iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus and previous iPhones, battery percentage is not always-on feature on iPhone X. Every time you want to check battery status on iPhone X, you need to perform this action. Initially, you may feel that it is a challenge to bring down and swipe up Control Center every time you want to get battery percentage on your iPhone X; but slowly and gradually, you will be accustomed to this gesture. However, you will always miss that always-on battery icon indicating battery percentage at the top right corner of your old iPhone.

More on that in the Tracking Battery Usage section of the article. If you're running iOS 4 through iOS 8, the process is slightly different. Tap General (in iOS 6 and higher; if you're on an older OS, skip this step). As I mentioned earlier, if you're running iOS 9 or higher, there's another feature on the Battery setting screen that you may find useful: Battery Usage. This feature gives you a list of which apps have used the most battery life in the last 24 hours and the last 7 days. With this information, you can pinpoint battery-hogging apps and then delete them or use them less and thus extend your battery life. To change the timeframe for the reporting, tap the Last 24 Hours or Last 7 Days buttons. When you do this, you'll see what percent of total battery used in that period was used by each app.
Apps are sorted from most-battery-used to least. Most apps include some basic information beneath them about what caused the usage. For instance, 13 percent of my recent battery use came from there being No Cell Coverage and my phone looking for it. In another instance, my podcast app, Castro, used 14 percent of my battery by playing audio and by performing tasks in the background. To get more detailed information about each app's battery use, tap the app or the clock icon in the top right corner of the Battery Usage section. When you do this, the text beneath each app changes a bit. For example, Castro (download from the App Store) now tells me that its 14 percent battery usage was the result of 2 minutes onscreen use and 2.2 hours of background activity. You'll want this information if your battery is draining faster than you expect and you can't figure out why. This can help you find apps that are burning through the battery in the background. If you're running into that issue, you'll want to learn how to quit apps so they don't run in the background anymore.

That’s because the actual charge isn’t the one displayed in the right corner of your iPhone. Extreme temperatures mess the calibration of the battery and the smartphone ‘can’t’ properly identify anymore what the correct juice levels are. An iPhone battery can also be de-calibrated by not performing full charge-discharge charges every now an then. If you frequently perform partial charges the battery percentage compass can end up showing inaccurate figures. Well if your iPhone shows 30% battery levels and shuts down, you might easily assume that there is a battery calibration problem. In fact is the battery indicator displays remaining juice values above 5% before it dies, its most probably a problem of battery reading accuracy. Fact: Some might panic and consider that their battery is done and dusted. However, a tired battery still shows one digit juice levels when the phone dies. The difference is that the percentage decreases natural but faster during a shorter period of time. So, before bringing your iOS device to the Apple Genius Bar, try to recalibrate the battery and see if your power problems are caused by a loss of accuracy or it’s really the time to replace your iPhone’s battery. Step 1: No matter what the battery level is, use your iPhone until it shuts down because of no power. It’s up to you if your enable/disable Low Power Mode. Step 2: Plug your device in to a power source and load it without any interruption until it reaches the maximum 100% battery charge. Fact: Make sure that you use and official Apple charger!

Tip: Be patient until your smartphone restarts. The battery percentage should show maximum charge. Unplug it and you’re ready to go!
