The charger is small, so it needs to be south facing in full sun to actually increase the charge. Generally, my solar charger barely maintains the doorbell's charge, and in cloudy conditions does no good at all, even though my front door is south facing. The charge icon is there whether or not it's charging. It's actually an icon that shows a solar panel is connected, not necessarily charging.

Hi @user_198b97. This is expected behavior. In order to extend the lifetime of the lithium-ion battery, your Solar Charger will not begin charging your battery until its percentage drops below 90%.
