Many iPhone owners will be happy about this
One of the most outstanding novelties and that, although it is a minor addition, has been liked the most among iOS users is the battery percentage icon. And it is that this update of the operating system returns said icon to our iPhone.
According to all indications, said battery percentage icon should reach all iPhone compatible with iOS 16. But the release of iOS 16 revealed that not everything was going to be as we expected.
The iPhone XR, iPhone 11 and iPhone 12 mini and 13 mini will be able to add the battery percentage
And the fact is that several of the devices compatible with iOS 16 were unable to display the battery percentage icon. These devices were the iPhone XR, iPhone 11, iPhone 12 mini, and iPhone 13 mini.
Many users of these devices did not understand what could happen. Something logical since, if we look closely, we see that one of the last devices released by Apple before iPhone 14, the iPhone 13 mini, was left out of this option.
The new battery percentage icons
But we have very good news for the owners of the iPhone mentioned above and who were not compatible with this option.The new beta of iOS 16.1, currently available only for developers, brings this option to those iPhone that are currently not supported.
In this way, all those devices compatible with iOS 16 from iPhone X will give the option to add it, if This is how users want this percentage in the battery icon of our device.
The truth is that we don't really understand why the iPhone XR, 11, 12 mini and 13 mini were initially excluded from being able to add this icon to the battery. But for whatever reason, we're glad Apple finally allowed it. What do you think of this feature in iOS 16?
