Show Battery Percentage When Taking Off Charger

[Kirkjt]

When I put my Charge 3 on the charger it shows me the percentage.  Let's say it's 74%, then I take my shower and am ready to put it back on.  I take it off the charger and have no idea how much (if any) it has charged.  So, I disconnect it and reconnect it so it will show the current charge again.  Now I see 88% and know where I stand.  I wish it would just show you the percentage charged when you remove it and save a step.

My Galaxy Wear watch does this and I like it.  I take it off the charger and know what I am currently at.

Hi Kirkjt,

have you tried squeezing the charging clamp whilst it’s charging then swipe up the screen once? You should see the current charge status at the top.

You can always check battery percentage by swiping up...it’s listed at the top
