I believe that the old advice you are referring to was in regard to NiCad
batteries, which for the most part are no longer in use. The Lithium Ion
batteries used today are much more forgiving, and as far as I know, will not
be damaged by staying on a charger.
Also, the chargers used today are smarter, in that they contain a chip that
will stop current when the battery reaches a full charge.
If you touch your Apple charging brick while it is charging, it feels very
warm, but after the charge is complete it is cold. This is because it is no
longer passing current to the battery.

Subject: Charging Your New Phone, Anyone?
Hello All,
Okay, based on my research I cannot find any Apple articles that
discouraged
leaving an iPhone 14 on a charger, when not in use.
You old-timers will recall that, once upon a time, it was recommended that
one not leave a phone on a charger, when not in use, full-time. It was
thought that doing so would shorten the life of the battery.
I found an Apple community thread that discusses this and the conclusion
is
that leaving a 14 attached to a charger, when not in use, will, in no way
damage or shorten the life of the battery.
Question: Does anyone have any credible statements / sources to the
contrary? If so, please post them as this can make a difference to the
life
of the battery, in the long run.
Unlike in the past, I want to consider all aspects of keeping my iPhone
battery healthy from the very beginning.
All replies greatly appreciated.
Mark
