Damn, some of you must have pretty chill lives if paying attention to what level your battery charge is at DAILY is something you want to add to your plates. I mean sure, if there was a setting that allowed you to have the phone automatically cut charging at 80% this might be worth thinking about. But when I charge my phone its during times when I dont have to think about it (Aka 90% of the time, when I'm asleep)
My phone has exactly this (oneplus 9 pro) but it works only when there is a full moon and the next Friday is the thirteen's day of the month, plus some other unknown requirements
I've a one plus Nord 2 5g and it has optimised charging at night but it doesn't come on every night I charge it and it does feel like there's some arcane shit needed for it to work at times.
