I don’t like smartphones. I use a dumbphone.

But this is a wonderful initiative.

      So my device settings have the functionality built in to stop charging automatically when the battery hits a certain percentage. And so I have set it to stop charging automatically at 81%. I also use BatteryBot Pro from F-Droid to alert me when the battery rises above 80% or drops below 30%

      Several Android manufacturers have their own settings in the OS for battery longevity (automatic schedule based smart charging, or charging limits)

      Don’t think it’s native in Android. Charging limits need support in the charging controller chip, plus driver support in the OS.
