The Open Source Solution from GitHub (The Dev Community)Īnd also the best solution I have found so far. If it is you can check out the “Identify” button.įor some reason sometimes it is not enough and it still won’t show the battery icon for the controller, but when I repeated the same steps for a few times it actually showed up. If you still do not see it, you might want to go to the Controller Settings section to check out if your controller is recognized by the system. Here you might see this icon on the top right corner next to the clock.
If the battery indicator icon is missing you can check the controller settings out in the Settings by clicking on the gear icon. If you have Steam installed, when you are in Big Picture Mode you can find this nice battery indicator logo on the top right corner. Not so useful if you only want to see if you should charge or not your controller. When you do so, the battery status indicator only says: “Battery level: Plugged in”. It cannot see your controller unless you plug it in with a cable.

The Xbox Accessories Appįor the Xbox One Controller Microsoft wrote an app called Xbox Accessories. So do not waste your time on it to check the battery level.
It gives you a lot of Xbox goodies but nothing about your accessories. On Windows 10 the Xbox App is pre-installed. This should be the best since, it is Microsoft with their own stuff, right? The Official Solution from Microsoft The Xbox App So let’s see what are the options you can choose from. But thanks to the developer community there is a smart solution that helps. It turns out there isn’t an official solution that works well. You might think that Microsoft gives you a working solution out of the box but I was spending quite a lot of time finding out what is the right way to do it.
To check the battery level of your wireless Xbox One Controller is not that trivial on a Windows 10 PC.
