<\/p>\nWondering what happened to the numeric battery percentage indicator on the iPhone X? The notch takes up enough space at the top of the screen that there was room only for the battery icon, which can be hard to interpret. If you want to see precisely what percentage of your battery is left, swipe down slightly from the top-right corner of the screen. That gives you the full set of indicators, including battery percentage. You don\u2019t have to keep swiping down enough to show Control Center, but if you do, all the indicators will be there too.<\/p>\n
