I'd like to be able to specify much shorter times than 3 days, I could have my phone reboot every night while sleeping if possible

- aryan14 2y agoVery good suggestion, however I’m not sure if it’s healthy for a phone to reboot 365d/year?
- dcow 2y agoWhy not?
- readyplayernull 2y agoBecause it's healthy to take some days off
- MR4D 2y agoMaybe it should reboot every day for 5 days and then not reboot for 2 days. Of course, that would be week security. /ducks
- erikerikson 2y agoEh hem... 4 day work weeks are more productive so not rebooting for 3 days should be even weeker.
- hulitu 2y ago> Very good suggestion, however I’m not sure if it’s healthy for a phone to reboot 365d/year? There is no (Windows) problem that a reboot cannot fix. /s
- scojjac 2y agoOn iPhone, you can use the Shortcuts app to do this. Create a new shortcut with the Restart action and save it. Then go to the Automations tab, set the schedule, and select your new shortcut. Make sure it's set to Run immediately.
- lxgr 2y agoWoah, I never cease to be surprised by the unexpected kinds of things that Shortcuts allows (given all the obvious ones it does not). Thank you! Out of curiosity (and because I'm not going to try that for tomorrow morning) – does that kill my alarms, or does iOS schedule/store these somewhere accessible before first unlock?
- happyopossum 2y agoiOS alarms continue to work after overnight upgrades which involve a reboot, and also work when you plug in a dead phone before bed, so they’ve apparently figured this out.
- kmeisthax 2y agoAFAIK there's (private?) API surface to request a container that isn't encrypted to your PIN specifically for the lock screen to work.
- refurb 2y agoIt’s actually pretty powerful and you can have automation tigger based on all sorts of things. I travel a lot so have it turn on specific data SIMs when GPS detects I’m in that country.
- turbojet1321 2y agoThis leads to a confirmation prompt, and unless you select "Restart" it does nothing. Do you know a way around that?

- Refusing23 2y agomy 2021 samsung can do that but my new pixel cannot
- zackify 2y agoThat’s why you gotta run graphene
- frankacter 2y agoJust tested on my pixel: Go to Settings Tap on System Select "Advanced." Tap on "Scheduled restart." Toggle the switch to enable it. Choose the day and time you want your device to restart automatically.
- 7734128 2y agoSuppose all police would just undo that setting as soon as they got the phone.
- Someone 2y agoCan’t do that when the phone is locked. If they can do that, they’re “in” and it will take them less than a day to take all data from the phone.
- ThePowerOfFuet 2y agoThe point is that they don't have the passcode so they couldn't.
- derbOac 2y agoI have no "Advanced".
