       is the "you have to unplug your devices when they're fully charged or it could harm/overcharge the battery" actually still a thing, or is it just an urban mythI'm fairly certain modern battery charging circuits (especially for Li Ion cells in phones and such) should be smart enough to not overcharge the battery if left plugged in, but I'm not 100% certain

       I mean people leave their phones plugged in overnight night all the time with usually little incidents so I'm pretty sure the answer is that it's a myth but

       so the answers confirm mostly what i already knewi imagined it'd be a thing in older battery tech where the charger amounts to just throwing a set voltage at the cell and hoping it charges, but i was pretty sure that the Li-Ion battery circuits in any modern device would be smart enough to not overcharge the battery so you could safely leave it plugged in all night(i knew about the thing where keeping the battery within 30-80% would make it last longer than doing full charge/discharges but thats aside the point, i was wondering in the 'leave it plugged in all night' kind of deal)i asked because i had someone tell me not to leave something plugged in charging for too long to not risk damaging it

       @delta I gather charging a li-ion battery beyond 80% and below 40% will reduce the lifespan of the battery
