How can I display the battery percentage in the notification bar on my Moto X Pure Edition?

[Zaku77]

is there no way to have a little battery % meter displayed next to the battery icon in the notification bar? It was super easy to find on my M8, but I'm just not seeing the option on here.

AOSP didn't have this built in. Google didn't add it to the Nexus. So Motorola didn't add it into their build either. You'll have to use a third-party app for that.

The one I use that is not bloat wear and you can delete app after is called battery percent enabler

I typically use GSam battery monitor since it provides a dual purpose of actual analytics.

+1 for Gsam. Icon and analytics at the same time.

A different alternative is to use the battery plugin with the Dash clock widget it works well for me.

This little gem is what saved me from risking my warranty by unlocking my bootloader, rooting, and installing xposed w/gravitybox!

It worked for me.
But after use of this app my mobile screen was not going down after inactivity time.
I just uninstalled the app and rebooted the device. Now it is working ok

I've been using Green Power for several years, and it works great for me.

Once 6.0 hits you can just do it through the system UI tuner. Have it enabled on the nexus 5 and 9.

How to access system UI tuner? I'm on 6.0

Open the quick settings and long press on the settings icon top right for about 5 seconds.

thanks - Brilliantly simple solution.
This was driving me crazy - this is such a simple requirement, why isn't it there by default?

A great tip- Thanks!

It's still tough to read in the icon but I use GSam at times to see it better.
I wish Motorola offered better widgets, or Google, the stock clock icon with battery and weather would be perfect.
