1. A computer-implemented method for operating a user interface for specifying a charging strategy for charging a device battery of a battery-operated device, the method comprising:
detecting a historical usage pattern of an operation of the device battery;
specifying a plurality of different charging strategies, each of the charging strategies having a corresponding charging curve for charging of the device battery;
determining an aging indication for each of the charging strategies based on (i) the historical usage pattern, and (ii) an assumption that all future charging processes for charging the device battery are performed using a relevant charging strategy of the plurality of different charging strategies;
informing a user about a relevant characteristic variable for each of the charging strategies and the respectively associated aging indication; and
specifying one of the charging strategies for future charging processes corresponding to a received user selection.
