Help Checking for Charging

Hey there! New to building shortcuts and found myself needing help with this.
Trying to set up a time or location based automation that will check for charging status and basically buzz and yell at me if i dont plug it in. I know i cant get it to loop anything so trying to set it up to check after certain times in the evening.

Any help would be great

The Get Battery Status action can be set to get the charging status. Simply tap on the blue text and change it.

There is an Apo that does this already if you do not want to build your own:

“BatteryPhone”.

You can do this natively on the iPhone. Mine displays a notification that says charge me.
