When the battery percentage disappears on your OnePlus 15, it becomes harder to judge how much power you actually have left.
This can lead to unexpected shutdowns or unnecessary charging habits.
In most cases, the issue is caused by a simple setting change or a temporary system glitch.
Why the Battery Percentage Is Not Showing on OnePlus 15
- Battery percentage is disabled in status bar settings.
- Battery Saver mode is hiding detailed battery information.
- A recent software update caused a visual bug.
- System UI is not refreshing properly.
- Display or notification settings were modified accidentally.
1. Enable Battery Percentage in Status Bar
The battery percentage can be turned off manually, even without you noticing.
Turning it back on restores the number next to the battery icon instantly.
Open Settings, and then tap Notifications and Status Bar.
Tap Status bar, and then enable Battery percentage.
2. Check Battery Saver Settings
Battery Saver can simplify the status bar to reduce distractions.
When this mode is active, the percentage may be hidden.
Open Settings, and then tap Battery.
Tap Battery Saver, and then turn it off temporarily to test.
3. Restart the Phone
A restart refreshes the system interface and reloads status bar elements.
This often fixes display glitches after updates or long uptimes.
Press and hold the Power key, and then tap Restart.
Wait for the phone to boot fully, and then check the status bar again.
4. Reset Status Bar and Display Settings
If the percentage still does not appear, a setting conflict may be causing it.
Resetting display-related options clears those conflicts without deleting data.
Open Settings, and then tap Display.
Scroll through display options, and then restore default status bar settings if available.
5. Update the System Software
Software bugs can prevent battery indicators from showing correctly.
Installing the latest update often includes fixes for UI-related issues.
Open Settings, and then tap About device.
Tap Software updates, and then install any available updates.
6. Clear System UI Cache
System UI controls what appears on the status bar.
If it misbehaves, clearing its cache can restore missing indicators.
Open Settings, and then tap Apps.
Tap App management, select System UI, and then clear cache.
Once the battery percentage is enabled again, your OnePlus 15 should show accurate power levels at a glance.
This makes daily use easier and helps you manage charging more efficiently.
FAQs
Why did my battery percentage disappear after an update?
Some updates reset visual preferences. This can turn off the battery percentage even though nothing else changes.

No. Displaying the percentage uses negligible power and does not affect battery life.
Can third party launchers hide the battery percentage?
Yes. Some launchers override system UI elements, which may hide the percentage unless enabled inside the launcher settings.
