Even when the standard battery indicator makes it difficult to tell how much charge remains, you can quickly check it as a number on your Lock Screen. A widget that lets you check your battery level as a large number on your Lock Screen. In situations where Apple’s built-in battery widget makes it difficult to see the remaining charge as a detailed number, this app lets you check it at a glance as a percentage. It’s also useful on Always-On Lock Screens. Battery status updates every few minutes or in 5% increments to conserve battery power. Widgets aren’t added simply by installing the app. To add this widget, see Apple’s “How to add and edit widgets on your iPhone” and configure it there.

It could have some improvements

It would be nice to make the battery showing widget a little bigger, or a slider to make it bigger so you can see it without putting on glasses..Also there’s this thing called “Display update time” but it’s unavailable..What is it for?

Developer Response
Thank you for your feedback!Regarding the widget size, widget dimensions are defined by Apple’s system specifications, and developers are not able to freely adjust or scale them beyond those guidelines. Because of this limitation, it is unfortunately difficult for us to make the battery display larger or add a size slider. We truly understand the need for better visibility and appreciate your suggestion.As for “Display update time,” this feature shows the last time the widget was updated. Since widgets on iOS are refreshed by the system at unpredictable intervals, this timestamp helps users understand when the displayed battery information was last refreshed and whether it reflects the most recent data.Thank you again for your thoughtful comments.

Only shows percentage to nearest 5% apparently. If you have 77% it still only shows 75%. Fix and get five stars.

Developer Response
Thank you for your feedback! You're absolutely right — due to iOS limitations, the battery level we receive is rounded and only updates in ~5–10% increments. Unfortunately, Apple doesn't currently provide a more precise way to access exact battery percentage through public APIs.if Apple opens up more detailed battery info in the future, we’ll be sure to update the app to take full advantage of it!

This widget has the feature that Apple should have originally had themselves. No brainer. Works as described and gives me a Lock Screen widget with percentage etc. oh, and it’s FREE. Download it.
