 Can somebody PLEASE fix the battery charge indicator? The new update has a terrible display for it..It is TINY SMALL AND SAYS HALF OF A NUMBER LIT UP??

Who would design such a thing? The battery condition is ThE most IMPORTANT status on the phone and I cannot imagine older people struggling to see this now..the whole top status bar is wayyy too SMALL!!! Please take a look at this..it was GREAT BEFORE..THANKS!

Your ideas are very helpful, but the change occurred immediately after the update, and after a load of research, including your suggestions, there appears to be no way to get a larger indicator for the battery level or choose a different icon to display on the home screen.  Will be reporting it as suggested as a stunning lack of intelligent design....I wonder if it is a product of AI ........

Check developer settings and make sure accessibility settings are correct?

It won't fix that..its a permanent update the only thing is if they see this is an issue they "may" fix it next update according to Samsung..as I wrote above..

No..not that I know of..I asked the guy in tech and he said no way..I mean maybe there is but I dont know it..I just wish they'd at LEAST keep the thing FULLY ILLUMINATED THE WHOLE TIME not this HALF LIT pill thing..its murder to see it when it gets lower...Ridiculous whoever came up with that

Well it can definitely be done. That's how I got out of the awful beta lol. An I agree it's ridiculous. Also the lack of help from Samsung is unreal. I understand why we have this App because if not we'd get no help lol

Has there been a way to change the type of battery icon in good lock?

The either on/off option is lacking. I would love the oneui6 option to just display the percentage? I mean without the animated pill type... Just numbers. I have not found it yet.
