How to Show / Hide Bluetooth Icon on Status Bar

[charika]

Hi,

I have an S20 Ultra.  Does anyone know how to show the Bluetooth icon in the Status Bar when I turn it on?  Because many times I forget to turn it off when I am not using anymore because I don´t see it anymore in the Status Bar.

Thanks

@charika: A quick swipe from the top of the screen to the bottom with show the Bluetooth icon in your status bar if it's active, allowing you the opportunity to disable Bluetooth via the Quick Panel while you're there. I hope this helps. ^AL

I don´t want to swipe anything to see if Bluetooth is active or not.  Previously there was an icon on the Status Bar that I don´t see anymore.

@charika: The Bluetooth icon will only show up in the Status Bar if you're connected to another device. If not, to check if Bluetooth is still activated you will be required to swipe from the top of the screen to the bottom. Apologies for any inconvenience this may cause you.

I can´t believe these icons (Bluetooth, Flashlight, Airplane mode, etc. ) were removed from the Status Bar!!!

Really dissapointed!!!

They have changed a lot of things that people really liked, and when people bring it up they just ignore them
such a shame to see others having issues too

Hi!!!

Now that some time has passed, does anyone knows if now the Bluetooth icon can be display on the Status Bar?  I want to see the Bluetooth icon next to the battery percentage and the other icons at all moment when it is on, not needing to swipe down.

I am finding it extremely frustrating not having the bluetooth icon on the status bar. Many times I've left bluetooth on for ages by accident as there's nothing on the status bar to prompt me that bluetooth is still on. I dont want to have to swipe down to the quick icons, because if you dont remember that bluetooth is still on, you're certainly not going to remember to swipe down. Having a bluetooth icon in the status bar is a fairly basic essential, and I hope samsung will add this into the next system update.
