Luckily cacti grow pretty slowly. So repotting isn't usually any issue, unless the soil/media is staying too wet in your house. And then I'd definitely use a chopstick to check soil dampness before watering. Sometimes the planta watering isn't super on point. So you can snooze for 2 days so that it starts to adjust the watering schedule longer. Otherwise you can do a custom schedule (not sure that's premium or not)

Don't water until soil is completely dry is a tip I got from my mom and she's got over a hundred plants so
