Automatic charging stop at 85% with Shortcuts for iPhone and iPad?

If you do have s mart plug, add it the to Home application: Add an accessory to the Home app - Apple Support. If "Home" is turned on both iPhone and iPad in Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Show All, the smart plug will also be available on the iPad. Then you won't have any issues creating the personal automation (you'll need to create it on both iPhone and iPad as automations are not synched between devices.)

Some questions:

• So what happens when you use it and then build the automation? Can you build the automation? Don’t hesitate to paste screenshots.
• What type of HomeKit hub do you use (Apple TV, HomePod)?
• What version of iPadOS and iOS are you sing on the iPad and iPhone?

Thanks for the screenshot. It seems that HomeKit is not working on your iPad.

1. On the iPad, open the Home app. Do you see your smart devices (including the smart plug you want to use)?
2. Do you use a hub for your smart devices, such as an Apple TV or a HomePod (mini or not)?

I didn’t. I just created the same personal automation on the iPad. I’m using an iPad using iPadOS 17.4.1 if it makes any difference but that same automation worked in (at least) the latter versions of iPadOS 16.

Don’t you have the “Battery Level” trigger in the personal automation screen on your iPad (you showed a screenshot of an iPhone)? Here is what I see on my iPad:

I'm confused: you show iPhone screenshots, not iPad screenshots. My understanding is that you were successful to set up the iPhone shortcut but you are not with the iPad. Could you post screenshots of the iPad?

Your "My Home" is not set up on the iPad. That's why the automation is not working.

On the iPad, go to Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Show All and turn on "Home." That should synchronize your smart devices already set up on your iPhone. Once done, still on the iPad, open the Homme app and check that you see your smart devices. If so, you'll have no issues using the smart plug in your personal automation.

I’m confused. You stated in your original post that you had a smart plug and you were able to make an automation on the iPhone.

If you have no smart devices connected to a hub (Apple TV ou HomePod) you won’t be able to turn off the charger.

Hello, I have created a similar personal automation in Shortcuts on my iPhone (iOS 17.4.) I duplicated it on the iPad and it works absolutely the same on that device (iPadOS 17.4.1.)
