View the Battery Percentage in the Control Center
Check the battery percentage in the Control Center of the iPhone XR (and all models after that).
Ask Siri for the Battery Percentage
Siri is the helpful voice assistant for iOS that can quickly answer your voice commands.
Add a Battery Percentage Widget to the iPhone XR
The Control Center is the simplest way to view the battery percentage. But if you want a larger visual aid, add a widget to the iPhone’s home screen or the Today View. First, ensure you have updated the iPhone to iOS 14 or higher.
Where Did the iPhone’s Battery Percentage Go?
The battery percentage is always present on the status bar on iPhone 8 or earlier models. The arrival of the iPhone XR introduced the notch for the front-facing camera, so the battery percentage was removed as a space-saving measure. But you can still use the methods above to see the battery percentage in an iPhone XR.
