Reminder when plugging in phone to charge at bedtime

I want to remember to open Bearable and log my day when I go to bed at night. I could set a reminder in Bearable for, say, 11pm every day, but the problem is that my bedtime varies wildly day by day, probably because of my ADHD.

The Digital Wellbeing app on my phone has a bedtime do-not-disturb mode which has a clever solution to this problem: you can set the bedtime DND mode to activate whenever the phone is plugged in to charge after a given time.

I’d like Bearable to have a similar feature, i.e. I’d like to be able to set a reminder that triggers whenever the phone is plugged in to charge after a user-defined time of the day.

    Hi Cai. Thank you for this. I think such a reminder would be extremely helpful, and I haven’t heard of an app doing that before. What type of phone do you have? And did the Digital Wellbeing app come with the phone?

    Is there anything else we could do to improve reminders?

    Hi Eoghan :)

    I have a Google Pixel 3a, and yes, as far as I recall, the Digital Wellbeing app came standard with the phone, though it appears to be available to download separately from the Play Store.

    I’ll have a think and see if there’s anything else I can come up with!
