Step by step

1. 

   Open Notifications & status bar

   Open Settings and tap Notifications & status bar.

   Done

2. 

   Tap Battery indicator

   Scroll to Status bar and tap Battery indicator. Ours said Percentage (in the icon).

   Done

3. 

   Pick a style

   A small menu opens with three batteries: a plain one, one with 100 inside it, and one with 100% next to it. The tick was on the number inside the icon.

   Done

4. 

   Number next to the icon

   Tap the bottom choice to show the percentage next to the battery instead. We did not change ours.

   Done

5. 

   Check the status bar

   The battery icon at the top right uses the style that is ticked. With Percentage (in the icon), ours showed 100 inside a green battery while charging.

   Done

If you do not see this option

• Menu shows only pictures? On our phone the menu had no words, only three battery pictures. Xiaomi's HyperOS 3 guide gives the same route and says to choose one battery indicator style. Source: Generic User Guide for HyperOS 3.0
• No Notifications & status bar? Xiaomi's support page gives another route: Settings, Notifications & Control center, Status bar, Battery indicator. Source: How to choose Battery indicator?

If this does not work

• Still no number? The top choice is the plain battery, which shows no number. Pick the second (number inside) or the third (number next to it).
• Number hard to read inside the icon? Pick the bottom choice, which puts the percentage next to the battery instead.

About this guide

The battery icon at the top right can show a number. Xiaomi calls this the Battery indicator.

The screenshots are from our Redmi Note 15 Pro 5G with Xiaomi HyperOS 3.0.308.0 and Android 16, in Light mode. We only opened these screens and changed nothing.

Good to know

Customise icon display, at the top of Status bar, picks which icons show. Xiaomi's guide says to tap the switch beside an icon to show it.
