    “Further, many phones are now programmed to shut off power once the battery is full, even if it remains plugged in.”

    Quoting the article they linked for you. Since you seem to have either missed this important bit or are being pedantic. Unless your phone is 10 years old, it won’t.

      Fast charging generates more heat, and heat degrades lithium batteries. That is the issue, not how long the phone is plugged in

      Maybe not useful, but-

      I use a setting on my phone that doesn’t let it charge past 80%. It still charges at 78% tho.

        Most modern phones also already do that and show 100% when they’re at ~80% because they want to optimize battery life.
