Normally we often check bluetooth devices battery by this way:
list bluetooth's devices

But it would be more convenient if we can see it on the system tray, like laptop's battery:
laptop's battery icon

... or have a 3rd party app display it like this Lenovo Vantage displays battery:
Vantage

How can I get a taskbar icon or widget displaying connected Bluetooth device's battery states in Windows?

There is a somewhat working third party app on GitHub called BluetoothLEBatteryMonitor, that displays the battery level as a systray icon:

In my case it was working to display the battery level of my connected iPhone, but it did no work with my Sony headset. It seems development of the tool has stopped.

UPDATE:

I just noticed that there exist a shareware which seems to be able to show the battery status of a variety of other devices called "Bluetooth Battery Monitor". You can find it here:

The best 3rd party tool for Windows 10/11 to show battery status of BT devices IMHO is Bluetooth Battery Level: https://workstation-master.com/bluetooth-battery-level.html

It is available as a Windows App (UWP) from the MS-Store.

It sits in the tray too, is configurable, perfectly integrates with Win10/11 UI.
