On the MagSafe device, when I place my phone on the charger, it does not show the battery percentage for the wireless charger on the home screen. How can I fix this?

It will only appear for a couple of seconds. And you cannot use “any” charger. You need 35 watts to charge at a 25 watt rate (yes, wireless chargers are MUCH less efficient than plugging in the phone). You can probably charge very slowly with a 12 watt iPad charger, but a 5 watt “cube” will not work at all. And Apple recommends a minimum 20 watts.

But that has absolutely nothing to do with my question...! The charger needs to have a USB-C port in order to use MagSafe charging, so I am using that, just not the 35W one, but I repeat, it has nothing to do with my question. ;)My question is “HOW CAN I SEE THE PERCENTAGE OF MAG SAFE ON MY HOME SCREEN AS SOON AS I PLACE MY PHONE ON IT, SINCE IT HAS NOT BEEN DISPLAYED EVEN FOR A SECOND, LET ALONE FOR A FEW SECONDS?”
Is the MagSafe plugged into a 35 watt or higher power source?
It has a lower wattage. They told me that any charger can be used, but for a while now, the red light has been blinking, and when it is not plugged into the power, it does not light up. :(
But everyone who uses devices with less than 35 watts sees the battery percentage of the MagSafe charger right next to the phone’s battery icon.
