Magic Tray · battery

See your Apple mouse, keyboard and trackpad battery on Windows 10 and 11

Windows shows no battery percent for these devices. Magic Tray puts one next to your clock, free, on Windows 10 and 11.

Read the battery percent

Magic Tray puts an Apple device's battery percent beside your Windows 10 or Windows 11 clock. Download it, run it, then hover the small battery icon in the taskbar to read the number. Click that icon instead and it lists every paired Apple mouse, keyboard and trackpad.

  1. Download Magic Tray and run it.
  2. Look at the icons beside your Windows clock.
  3. Click the ^ arrow if you can't see one.
  4. Hover the small battery icon.
  5. Read the percent in the label that appears.
  6. Click the icon to list every paired device.

Some call it the battery percentage, some the battery indicator. It's the same number.

Which Apple devices show a battery percent?

Magic Tray reports a battery percent for every Apple Magic Mouse, Magic Keyboard and Magic Trackpad it recognises on Windows 10 and 11. Mice and trackpads need nothing extra. A keyboard needs a one-time unlock first. Only three devices have been confirmed by a tester so far.

The four-character code is what Windows shows for your model. Which device is this?

Can I see my Apple keyboard's battery percent on Windows?

Yes. Windows shows no percent for an Apple keyboard on its own, but Magic Tray does after a one-time unlock you run from its menu. Your keyboard keeps the standard Windows Bluetooth driver. The 2011 Apple Wireless Keyboard is confirmed, and every rechargeable Magic Keyboard should work, though nobody has confirmed one yet.

How the keyboard unlock works.

Low battery warnings

Magic Tray shows a Windows notification when an Apple device's charge falls past the level you choose. The three levels are 10 percent, 5 percent and 1 percent. Click the tray icon and open Low battery alert to change which one you get, or to turn it off.

Every alert level in detail: battery alerts.

Why is no battery percent showing?

Four things stop a percent appearing on Windows. The device is asleep, so wake it and pick Refresh Now. The tray icon is hidden behind the taskbar's ^ arrow. It's a keyboard that hasn't had its one-time unlock yet. Or Magic Tray doesn't recognise that model.

Three. The Magic Mouse 2024 (0323), the Magic Mouse v1 with AA batteries (030D), and the 2011 Apple Wireless Keyboard (0239). Every other Apple mouse, keyboard and trackpad Magic Tray recognises should work, but nobody has sent a report yet. Send one and yours joins the list.

Common questions

Which Apple devices show a battery percent?
Every Apple Magic Mouse, Magic Keyboard and Magic Trackpad the app recognises, on Windows 10 and 11. Only keyboards ask for anything extra, and that is the one-time unlock.
Can I see my Apple keyboard's battery percent on Windows?
Yes, once you run the one-time unlock from the Magic Tray menu. Windows keeps its own keyboard driver, and so far only the 2011 Apple Wireless Keyboard has been confirmed by a tester.
Why is no battery percent showing?
Usually the device is asleep, or the icon is hiding behind the taskbar's ^ arrow. On a keyboard it means the unlock hasn't been run; otherwise the model isn't one Magic Tray knows.
Which Apple devices has a tester confirmed?
Three so far: the 2024 Magic Mouse (0323), the AA-battery Magic Mouse v1 (030D) and the 2011 Apple Wireless Keyboard (0239). The rest should work, but nobody has reported back yet.
How do I check my Apple Magic Trackpad battery on Windows?
Run Magic Tray and hover the battery icon beside your clock. No driver changes, and no extra step like the keyboard's unlock. Magic Trackpad 2 (0265), the 2024 trackpad (0324) and the AA-battery one (030E) should all report a percent, but nobody has confirmed one yet, so send a report if yours works.
