For android users, we can easily set notifications if battery level reach certain range by using apps like Tasker. Before this I set it for full charge. Change it to above 80% just now.

EDIT: tasker proj file in case anyone is interested. Link.

Samsung straight up has battery protection option which doesn't allow it to charge above 85%.
