On, because I want information, not art.
Exactly.
On. I don’t understand why it always seems to be off by default.
Probably some bullshit legacy design choice from steve jobs
Low power mode all the time, damn phone doesn’t need to be doing fishy stuff in the background anyway.
number, that icon can be anything from %60 to %90
The only advantage of “number off” is it comes with extra anxiety for free.
Agreeeeeee
I must know precisely how anxious to be.
Number only, get out of here with superfluous symbols. I don’t need The Status Bar: Illustrated Edition.

Takes too much space but is otherwise alright
A lot of people like to do extra work to ignore hard realities.
Without the number on, i keep letting my phone die because i dont realize its on 1% and i should really charge it
my bar turns yellow at like 20% and red at less than 10%… I panic when it’s less than 50% though.
I have battery saver turn on at 50%, which overrides the color
I’d rather have the percentage on and with slightly larger digits, because at more than a feet away from the phone screen hard to tell how much battery charge is left without the percentage.
I wish the number was clearly visible. That’s all I want. The numbers are usually too hard to see for me.
Change your display scaling in the Developer Options in Android. “Minimum width” or “Smallest width” is the number you want to adjust. Decrease number to increase scaling, increase to decrease until you’re happy and everything is legible.
I don’t want anything else bigger except that number. And when the percentage is on top of the battery symbol it’s really hard to see when the numbers and background are different colors. My brain finds it difficult to process.
Wow, I actually can’t stand the number. It gives me anxiety.
Please explain how?
For me, constantly knowing the exact percentage gives me anxiety. Seeing just a picture makes the battery look fuller and I feel less of a sense of urgency. I’m not a heavy phone user, so I very rarely have less than 40% at the end of my day.
see number go down -> body goes oh no! panic!
But what about seeing an image of a battery go down and not know what percentage is left, that seems even more stressful to me
it’s a good thing that we can all choose the option that works for us then
Numbers go down all the time. No need to panic, but it may be a reason to plan…
On because of accuracy and its the default
Am a numbers guy, I know you like da number
