iPhone XS: How to Permanently Show Battery %?

Just upgraded to a new iPhone and running into a major issue- I can't easily get to the battery level. There has to be a way to do this. The battery indicator icon is 100% useless. I know you can drag down from the control center, but it's really obnoxious to have to do this. What level the battery is at is probably the most important piece of information to give me when I tap my phone, and right now I can't seem to find a way to do that easily. Having to drag the control panel open shouldn't be necessary.

The indicator simply doesn't provide enough information and is usually wildly inaccurate- i.e., right now my battery is at 30% but the indicator icon is about 2/3 full. How do I get the % to show permanently so I don't have to drag from the control panel? This is really annoying and potentially dangerous if I end up somewhere where I'm depending on maps to get me around and my phone dies because the battery indicator icon is useless.

Please help me get my % back on the home screen!
