For jailbreakers, there are many ways to customize battery information in the iOS status bar. For example, different themes for the battery icon can be installed with Alkaline. The tweak No Percent Sign takes a different path and only does one thing, it removes the battery percent sign from the status bar. For anyone who dislikes the "%" symbol enough, installing this tweak solves the problem.
Once installed, there are just two toggles under the settings for No Percent Sign. One switch will enable or disable the tweak entirely, restoring the stock status bar. The other hides the battery icon, for an even more streamlined look. While the tweak recommends a respring when changing settings, the percent sign will appear and disappear a few seconds after changing the Enable toggle.
No Percent Sign is available from the BigBoss repo on Cydia for free. To start customizing iOS, click here for instructions on jailbreaking iOS 8.0-8.1.2. Those with older firmware can jailbreak with Pangu (iOS 7.1) or evasi0n 7 (iOS 7.0). Find out how to purchase and install Cydia tweaks with this guide.
