This seems like something the optimize charging tool could manage though. Starting the day at 90 percent or 80 percent or whatever is crazy to me - why am I going backwards to needing to babysit my phone when it's charging, and why would anyone want to charge their phone when they want to be using it vs when they're asleep?
Turn on "Optimized night charging" in battery options. I think every Oneplus has this.
Mine (Nord 2) does have it, but it's broken and never triggers.
Ah I see. I've never tried it because I don't charge my phone overnight
That's why Pixels and some others have a "smart charge" feature that will wait to charge your phone until just before your alarm time so that it will finish right before you take it off the charger.
I honestly don't understand why people have such trouble with this. I can throw my phone on a charger when I go to shower and it's at 80 percent when I get out, and that's enough for my day. I could leave it while I get dressed and eat or something and it'd be at 100 if I needed. I don't need my phone 24 hours a day. And there are many points in my day where I'm not using my phone for an hour that I could spare to charge it. I don't need to leave it burning away permanent battery capacity for hours and hours every night.
