How do I know if my PS4 controller is charging?
Check the light bar - it should be glowing or pulsing orange/yellow when charging. If it's not lit at all, it's either fully charged or there's an issue!

When you plug in your PS4 controller, the light bar on the top will start pulsing in an amber color. If it鈥檚 solid, then it means it鈥檚 fully charged.
From my experience, the light bar鈥檚 color and pulsing pattern are the giveaways. Blinking amber means it's charging, and a solid white means it's good to go!
Just look at the light bar; if you see orange or yellow lights, you're golden. No lights, no charge.
