Why doesnt the ipod 5th gen have battery percentage?

Can someone tell me why the Ipod touch 5th generation doesnt have the battery percentage icon?
I've always wondered why the 5th gen Ipod touch doesnt have battery percentage. They should have it, its long overdue.

See:
[How To] Enable the Battery Percentage with iBackupBot | iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch forums | iFans
However, % battery is not accurate on the iPod and some users have reported increased battery drain.

  • Why doesnt ipod touch 5th gen have battery percentage like iphones?

    Why deosnt ipod touch 5th generation have battery percentage like iphone i just dont see the problem is it a problem because i think that would really come in handy.

       They could have but maybe the idea for the percentage meter was thought up after the original design for the iPod Touch hence why the design for the iPhone's design was slightly altered after the iPod Touch's design was put in to the engineering  process or maybe they just wanted it that way.

  • Why doesnt the Ipod touch 5th gen have Battery Percentage with IOS 7?

    I read that the Ipod touch 5th gen will have battery percentage with IOS 7. But so far it doesnt. Just wanted to know if this was a lie or if something happened and apple decided to remove it.

    and i have seen pictures of the Ipod touch with the percentage next to the battery on the apple website.

  • Why is the ipod 5th gen microphone on the back of the device?

    i Am just wondering why the microphone is on the back of the ipod 5 when if you use it, you usually have the screen facing you.

    Because it will better receive sound when you take videos with the back camera. The 5G without the back camera had the mic on the front

  • Why is the ipod 5th gen wifi antenna exposed

    I was wondering why they decided to expose the wifi antenna again on the 5th generation iPod after having the antenna "hidden" on the 4th gen? Does it make the Wifi better, stronger etc.

    The antenna is located on top left and is not exposed (see step 11)

  • I have the iPod 5th gen. and my iPod wont connect to my wifi. I've tried everything. I reset my wifi networks and it still wont work. What do i do???

    I have the iPod 5th gen. and my iPod wont connect to my wifi. I've tried everything. i rest my wifi networks and it still wont work. What do I do??

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tend to indicate a problem with your network.
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network      
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • My iPod dispalys this message: "Connect to a computer. Use iTunes to restore."  When I connect to a computer, iTunes doesn't recognise it.  The iPod 5th Gen does not work at all. How do I fix my iPod without losing any data?

    My iPod dispalys this message:
    "Connect to a computer. Use iTunes to restore."  When I connect to a computer, iTunes doesn't recognise it.  The iPod 5th Gen does not work at all. How do I fix my iPod without losing any data?
    I have seen the Apple webpage suggesting the "five R's" (including restore).  Before doing anything, I want to be sure that restoring or any other action is not going to delete or risk my data. 
    I would be very grateful if anyone can suggest a fix for this problem, in a way that will not risk my data. 
    Thanks in advance!

    Did you try a hard reset with the iPod still connected to your PC?  Have you tried multiple USB ports, preferably high powered USB 2.0 ports?
    To do a hard reset, first make sure the hold switch is in the Off position, then press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    Have you also worked through each and every single troubleshooting suggestion in this Apple support document?

  • Can the iPod (5th Gen) be used as an external hard drive? (w/ no syncing)

    Dear Forum:
    Can the Ipod (5th Gen) be used as an external hard drive where I can manually (without syncing) transfer photos to the drive? My goal is to be able to transfer images from my MacBook (OS 10.4.11) to the Ipod and then erase some of the pics on my MacBook to save space; this will be something I'd doing when I'm traveling--I don't want to be carrying my desktop external hard drive with me.
    Naturally I don't want to sync the photos onto the Ipod because I'll be erasing photos to save space. By the way, I use Aperture 2 (with latest firmware) if it helps to know.
    Ideally, is there a way I can "see" the Ipod as an external hard drive, so I can move files onto it?
    Thanks,
    Steve
