Hi Steffen95,
This thread where your initial post was moved, is one of many topics on the subject of battery life or longevity, from which you will gather that there are many like-minded Fairphoners who think this is important and worth pursuing actively, but also many who don’t. Personally, like you, I’m all for it!
You’ll also see that there are contributions from FP staff. Their avatars carry a special “F” label.
But let’s look at it from the manufacturer’s perspective. For example, bear in mind, that providing software to manage this, implies constant care on the part of the manufacturer to verify continuing compatibility with every OS update, so it’s an added complication and expense. Nothing worse than having lots of topics and mails to Support, entitled, “Phone not charging after update to 3.A.nnnn”. If you have billions to spend, like A & G, then you could arguably be criticized for not spending a bit on such software and the subsequent support. However, FP is not in that league - which is one of the reasons why we’re all here
Then there’s the question of implementation. A large number of people don’t really think about this sort of question at all, despite our best efforts communicating on the subject, so either you would want to activate a default longevity policy, or else accept that your efforts will be wasted on a major proportion of users. And of course, if you daringly implement a default longevity policy, then you’re likely to have users in droves, who haven’t read the manual, complaining about their phone never charging beyond 70% or whatever. Maybe I’m overly pessimistic.
Alternatively, you can decide to leave it to your clients, of whom many are conscientious, as you know, to work out a solution for themselves, such as an app (for the nerdy ones - will however require root) or something like my own very simple approach. This would appear to be FP’s current position - but of course this is just my opinion …
That’s the thing to do!
