Then, you can tap on the battery icon (or "Usage Details") up top to view advanced usage details.Neither of these options are present in Android 9.0 right now, but it's simple enough to get them back. The public release may bring back Oreo's "Battery" menu by default, but it's looking more and more like they are going to try something new this time around — but that doesn't mean you have to.Update: Subsequent updates to Android Pie have changed some things in the "Battery" menu, so the below trick won't work to get things looking like Android Oreo anymore.

Method 1: Change Your 'Battery' Menu BackThere are actually two things you can do right now. One, which is this first method, is just making the default "Battery" menu in Android Pie like the old one in Android Oreo. The other method, which will discuss later, actually gives you an additional battery menu so you get the best of both worlds.
Step 1: Unlock the Hidden 'Feature Flags' MenuIn order to unlock the hidden "Feature flags" menu in Android Pie, you'll need to first unlock the hidden "Developer options" menu in Settings.

Back at the main "Battery" menu again, when you tap on the big battery icon up top, you'll be in the Advanced battery usage just like on Android Oreo, where you can see a quick graph for battery power left and some breakdown statistics.

Method 2: Add a Second 'Battery' MenuIf you're not sure whether or not you like the new Android P version of the "Battery" settings or the old Android Oreo version, you don't have to decide just yet. You can actually have both! Just perform Step 1 above, then, in the "Developer options" menu, tap on "See Android 8.0 battery settings."
