## Description

The Battery Percentage Indicator Chrome extension allows Android users to effortlessly enable the default battery percentage overlay on the stock battery icon within the status bar. Compatible with devices running Stock/Pure Android on KitKat, Lollipop, and Marshmallow versions, it requires no rooting or complicated setup. Users need only to activate the "Show Battery Percentage" option to see their device's battery level either immediately or after a reboot, depending on their Android version.

Beyond displaying the battery percentage, this extension provides comprehensive battery information including health status, power source, temperature, voltage, and technology type. It supports a wide range of devices, including Motorola, OnePlus, Nexus, Samsung, Oppo, Vivo, and others with pure Android interfaces. This tool offers a simple, reliable way to monitor battery stats directly from the status bar, enhancing user awareness and device management.

## Review summary

Users appreciate the app's simplicity and effectiveness in showing exact battery percentage, especially on devices and Android versions where this feature is missing by default. It reliably displays percentage in the notification bar and is easy to use. However, it does not display the percentage on the home screen and does not work on some older Android versions like Oreo and Pie. Ads, including some with audio, can be annoying. Users suggest improvements such as embedding percentage in the battery icon and adding charging status information.

### Pros

- Simple and easy to use interface, requiring no complicated setup.
- Works well on various Android versions and devices where native battery percentage display is missing.
- Provides the battery percentage visibly in the notification bar for quick access.
- Reliable and performs as promised without fuss.

### Cons

- Does not display battery percentage on the home screen, only in the app or notification bar.
- Does not work properly on some older Android versions such as Android 8 (Oreo) and 9 (Pie).
- Includes ads that some users find intrusive or have audio, negatively affecting experience.
- Some requests for adding battery percentage inside the battery icon to save space on devices with notches.
- Lacks additional battery info like charging status or low battery alerts.
