How to show percentage of battery in Moto G5 and G5 Plus

The Moto G5 and Moto G5 Plus have a hidden feature that allows you to show the percentage of the battery in the top bar. The trick is not enabled by default on your phone, and is located in a hidden menu on your smartphone.

When enabled, it shows the actual amount of load, next to the vertical bar you already know. With this, you can get a better sense of how much left to use during the day without having to open the Android quick-button curtain. See step-by-step and learn how to show the remaining battery percentage on Motorola phones.

It is worth remembering that the percentage already appears when the device is charging, so what the function does is to keep the information at any time. The feature can be turned on and off whenever the user wishes. The same goes for the tuner menu - to remove it, just keep the gear icon pressed once more.
