It’s actually very easy to have the number off and still get full functionality.
I just made a 100 page booklet that shows each battery level graphic alongside the percentage, so when I want to check my battery level, I just pull out the book and flip back and forth until I find the right icon, and bam! I know my exact battery level in less than 5 minutes.
Using enough power to run a house for a day (not the actual amount, don’t care) to interpret a bad graphic sounds like something Sam Altman would be proud of.
I don’t care until it gets to about quarter full, that’s when I check to see what actual percentage it’s at. I’m rarely on my phone enough to drain the battery on a normal day.
Yeah, the only reason I would need the number always visible and not just visible on down-swipe would be if it ever ran out during the day. Probably would be necessary for people who stream videos a lot.

I just take a screenshot and upload it to Grok and ask it to tell me how much battery I have left.

ugh, fine make it a flip book and I’ll commit
counterpoint: these numbers are guesswork anyway. why pretend, you just want to know that it’s not red
Counter counter point: I want to know whether it’s at 90%, 75%, 60% or 45% without counting pixels
Can you not just glance and see approximately? Can’t think visually, must convert to numerical?
Yes, I must have the exact number. I need some certainty in the chaos of this universe.
Okay, give me an actual voltage reading, why not?
Unironically yes please, I’d root my phone for this
I more want a guesstimate of when my phone will be red, so if anything a second timer next to my clock would be best.
…or a number that i can tune my own instincts to
I suggest wingding font
