I could be totally wrong about my understanding but I think phones and other devices “pull” the electricity needed to charge their batteries and if you plugged it into a wall plug that couldn’t supply enough juice it could damage the phone. I also hear people talk about some wall plugs charge their phone way faster so my question is can phones or other devices modulate how much they pull if they detect that a plug is capable of supplying more? Enlighten me people of the internet’s!

actually they either naturally limit electrical current by design or have control circuitry to slow the influx of electricity to protect it’s self(usually from over heating)
all circuits(anything that does anything with or to electricity) operate on ‘available current’ meaning any power on a circuit will be used as quickly/heavily as possible. so circuits are designed to control that flow first.
some verbiage may include pulling current or pulling juice or ‘how much power is it pulling’ but it is in accurate. it’s simply letting it out.
