Google is adding a feature on Pixel phones that lets you limit the battery charge to 80%, but it was never in the first Android 15 release.
Crdroid had this feature before, so custom roms ftw.
Hope this feature will be in AOSP and not proprietary Play Services but who knows these days
I used to root my android phone to limit battery charge + adaway. But recently I finally gave up with rooting due to all the restrictions that comes along with it.
You can use Tasker or equivalent apps to limit the battery charge.
I thought it wasn’t possible except by rooting or external control. I’ve just been doing it manually but figure on adding an automatic controller sometime.
wait, isn’t it by default the case? they just change the scale to have a 0 to 100 percentage, or I’m missing something?
Afaik yes, kinda. 100% likely doesn’t mean that the battery is 100% full it might mean 99% or something. I have no idea how much they reduce it but the point of this is to be able to reduce it even more. Which would be better for your battery.
