Not seeing the battery percentage on your Tecno Pova Slim 5G can be annoying. You might only notice the battery icon, which does not give an exact idea of how much charge is left. Thankfully, this is a simple issue to fix with a few quick adjustments.
Why Your Tecno Pova Slim 5G Might Not Show Battery Percentage
- The battery percentage option is disabled in settings.
- A temporary software glitch hides the percentage from the status bar.
- System settings were reset after a recent update.
- Power-saving or theme changes affected the status bar display.
Enable Battery Percentage in Settings.
The most common reason is that the battery percentage option is turned off. You just need to enable it to see the number again.
- Open Settings, and then tap Battery.
- Tap Battery percentage, and then toggle the switch to turn it on.
Once enabled, you should now see the percentage next to the battery icon in the status bar.
Restart Your Phone.
If the percentage does not show even after turning on the option, it could be a minor glitch. Restarting refreshes the system and clears temporary bugs.
- Press and hold the Power key, and then tap Restart.
- Wait for the device to reboot, and then check if the percentage is visible.
Check for Software Updates.
Sometimes updates reset or change system settings. Installing the latest software ensures you have bug fixes and improvements.
- Open Settings, and then tap System.
- Tap System update, and then check for updates.
If an update is available, download and install it. After the update, recheck the battery settings.
Reset System Settings.
If nothing works, resetting system settings can bring everything back to default without deleting personal data. This often resolves display-related issues.
- Open Settings, and then tap System.
- Tap Reset options, and then select Reset all settings.
Your phone will restart, and you can then enable the battery percentage option again.
Fixing the missing battery percentage on the Tecno Pova Slim 5G is simple. In most cases, enabling the option in settings does the job, but if not, restarting, updating, or resetting the settings will resolve it.
