Re:The iOS option to charge battery to "80% Limit" shouldn't... by numpad0 on Thursday October 19, 2023 @12:13AM (#37938294)
Battery charging is often controlled in "hardware" and OS don't have full control(else a software crash could easily cause fire). Some hardware implementations can be instructed to stop charging immediately or stop this time at specific voltage, but implementation varies and the feature is often ignored.

We know the older hardware has that, because the software already controls it on a schedule.
