About Chargie - phone charge limiter
Charge smarter. Sleep better. Keep your battery healthy. Most phones and laptops today come with built-in battery protection features that limit charging — but they don’t always work the way you expect. These systems often wait until your battery hits 100% before stopping, or they rely on your daily habits, which can be unpredictable. They’re a step in the right direction — but they’re not enough. Chargie goes further. It’s a hardware and app combo that gives you full control over how and when your phone charges. By letting you choose your own charging limit and schedule, Chargie keeps your battery cool and unstressed all night — which significantly extends its lifespan. How it works: 1. Order the Chargie USB device from chargie.org 2. Plug it between your regular charger and your phone cable 3. Install the Chargie app and connect via Bluetooth 4. Set the maximum charge percentage you want and the overnight level your want your phone to stay at. 5. Set the morning top up level and time you wake up. Sleep soundly — Chargie handles the rest Why it’s better than stock solutions: - Works with any phone or laptop, not just select models - Doesn’t rely on vague algorithms or machine learning - Actively controls the power flow, not just battery software - Automatically resumes charging before you wake up - Reduces battery heat and wear throughout the night by reducing charging power or increasing it adaptively With Chargie, your phone battery lasts longer, your device stays valuable for resale, and you help reduce electronic waste — all without changing your habits. Shipping is fast worldwide so you can start protecting your phone right away. Chargie hardware sold separately. Bluetooth required for app operation.

What’s new
Version 2.7.7 · Updated August 16, 2026
- One-time schedules now delete themselves once they are done: as soon as the scheduled time passes with your battery at its target, or half an hour after the time if it never got there - Holding at the base level overnight no longer turns into charging all night. To keep iOS from suspending the app, Chargie switches power on for 30 seconds every half hour. When the app was woken in the background, the timer that ends that pulse could never fire, and the pulse stayed on for hours - Background wake-ups now run on the same thread as everything else, which is what let the pulse get stuck. A pulse older than a minute is treated as over regardless - Extra: Added Chargie Fleet support
