My wife's phone dies every. single. day. and I don't know why she doesn't just charge it at night.

I'm just wondering how people live like this ๐Ÿ˜…

I thought you're not supposed to keep things charging after they reach full battery. Also I don't have a plug near my bed lol

Recent smartphones learn your patterns and don't fill up until the morning. For instance my phone currently is stuck at 80% and says it'll be fully charged at 7AM

I really wish this worked for times other than the mornings. I work in the late evenings most of the time, so thus its pretty normal for me to wake up at 9PM (like today) - however, the only time it ever seems to do the trickle charge is for when I set an alarm for say 10AM and plug my phone in at 3AM.

Works If you have the same routine everyday

That's...weird. Patterns change and maybe I need my phone charged earlier than that. Never heard of this.

My Pixel has the option to only do it when I have an alarm set, and it reaches full charge about 15 minutes before my alarm goes off.
