Apparently a notification will show up when optimised charging is enabled. I’ve never seen it, because the functionality also requires Significant Locations and other location services (listed near the bottom of the page) to be enabled.
That seems to me to be quite unfriendly to privacy. And given that I always charge my phone overnight and use my phone’s alarm function, it could simply use that as the target time to finish charging to 100%. No complicated location-based ML needed.

- currysausage 6y agoAt least, it would be nice if they told me about this requirement on the Settings sheet where I enable "Optimized Battery Charging". I was wondering why it never seems to kick in. Thank you for the clue!
