Description Natalie Clarius 2020-04-08 08:58:33 UTC

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Click on the Bluetooth icon in the systray.
2. Click on a connected device.

OBSERVED RESULT
Only shows information such as name and address of the device.

EXPECTED RESULT
It would be desirable to also see the battery charging percentage of the connected device.


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

(available in About System)

This depends on the capabilities of the device. We show that information in Plasma 5.18 since [1]

So yeah, this is implemented, and if your device doesn't show it, there's probably something wrong with your device.

Comment 3 Natalie Clarius 2020-04-14 11:40:22 UTC

By "device" you mean the machine that KDE is running on, or the connected Bluetooth device? Because for the latter, my Android phone does show the battery status, so that doesn't seem to be the issue.
