How to Show iPhone and iPad Battery Levels in Windows

If you use an iPhone or iPad alongside a Windows PC, you may want an easy way to monitor your devices without constantly picking up your phone or tablet. In this guide, we explain how to show iPhone and iPad battery levels in Windows 11 with the Battery Meter Windows 11 app and Windows 11 widget.

Can You Show iPhone and iPad Battery Levels in Windows?

Windows does not currently provide a simple built-in feature that automatically displays the battery percentage of an iPhone or iPad inside the Windows Battery Widget. Microsoft’s battery-related features are primarily designed for Windows PCs and supported connected devices.

This means that if you want to show iPhone and iPad battery levels in Windows, you may need to use another method, such as a Battery Meter Windows application.
