Turn on these Android 16 settings you are probably ignoring

Android 16 quietly ships with an adaptive charging schedule (Settings > Battery > Charging optimization) that learns your daily routine and slows charging near 100% to protect long-term battery health.

Pair that with the redesigned Material 3 Expressive lock-screen customization — long-press an empty area of your lock screen to change clock styles, add shortcuts, and enable always-on widgets.
