Rebecca, You should be able to check battery status in the Menu Extras area. On my MacBook Pro, a battery item was there by default. When using macOS Catalina, and earlier versions of macOS, you can set a VoiceOver Hotspot that you can use to read the battery status with a VoiceOver keyboard

If on Catalina or earlier, go to Bluetooth in Menu Extras, select the Keyboard, then use the Right Arrow to open the submenu, and Down Arrow to battery status. I don’t think this can be done if using Big Sur. - Brad - On Feb 21, 2021, at 20:27, Fazil wrote: Hi, Group. How can I check

Personally, I prefer keeping it between 40% and 100%. I have heard that keeping iPhone batteries between 40-80% is best to keep it as much as possible, but It is a very low range. So, I make the iPhone between 40-95% as much as I can. Sometimes, I can’t get it exactly, so it won’t matter a lot.
