Unfortunately it won’t display a numeric %’age on the battery icon of main/home screen (like on a Mac).


The closest you can get is to activate the Battery Widget.


Then, battery state displays on a nice big screen w/ a single right-swipe from the home screen.

On your iPhone 13 swipe down from the top-right corner. The battery percentage is viewable while in any app, as well as from the Home Screen and Lock Screen.


From the iPhone User Guide (iOS 15):


See the iPhone battery percentage in the status bar


  • On an iPhone with Face ID: Swipe down from the top-right corner.
  • On an iPhone with a Home button: Go to Settings > Battery, then turn on Battery Percentage.
