Terminate Battery Charging on M8

I've read that you should unplug the phone when it reaches 100%. Does anybody know of an App that will do this,  as I charge mine overnight, every night and I guess it hits 100% while I'm well away in the land of nod.Thanks.

Your charger and the phone's internal circuitry should reduce the charge to trickle once the battery is full - just enough to power the phone.   You'll notice that the charger will be warm while it's operating at full chat, but cools after that, indicating a lower level of activity.   You don't need any additional software (such as a app).   There's a debate over whether it's advisable to unplug the charger in these circumstances or not, but a lot of people do charge overnight with no apparent problems.  If you're worried, the best thing would be a time switch set to run for 5 or 6 hours.
