These kinds of features being so limited annoys me.

Like GoPro can only auto clear a video from your sd card that has been uploaded on the newest model. There is no way that is limited to those devices. But, it probably isn't profitable to even crack open the code for the older models so they don't even consider it. It makes it worse because I'm even paying a subscription for storage.

It's much worse in this particular case. They purposefully had to lock the feature behind a device flag to prevent older phones (that still support the newest OS) from using it. I'd expect that they could easily enable the feature for all phones that also support Optimize Battery Charging.
