Is there a way?
In Settings, I can't find such an option and it won't show the percentage there too. Can it be done besides using 3rd party app such as System Status Lite?

offers to display both percentage and Time. http://bjango.com/mac/istatmenus/
When running SL, you could get the old free version. However, it does not contain the battery menulet: http://mac.brothersoft.com/istat-menus-2.0.html
I'm going to assume that you mean this app: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/phone-for-google-voice-talk/id541829441?mt=8 Since the app is free, it's reasonable to have ads. You could email the developer and ask for it to be removed in the next release.
Or, if you don't mind losing the Google Voice integration, you could go with Verbs ($1), which is an IM app.
Less reliable way to fix it: After signing in with Mo+ GV, sign into Gtalk from somewhere else (like your computer). I think only the most recent status will be displayed.
Insane way to fix it: Jailbreak your iPhone to disable code signing. Then, find the "I'm using Mo+…" string in the application's binary and change it to an empty string.

Currently, as of iOS 11.1, there's no way of showing the battery percentage by default.
One way to see the battery percentage is to pull-down slightly on the right 'wing' (with the battery icon). Once the screen changes to the Control Center, you'll be able to see the battery percentage.
Another way to find this out is to just ask Siri. You can say "What's my battery life" and the response will include the percentage of power remaining.
The remaining way is to charge your iPhone. When you charge it, the battery percentage is briefly displayed on the lock screen.
