Try Charging Your Phone Outside the Bedroomroutinedaily

A phone beside the pillow is easy to pick up for one small thing. It is just as easy to still be holding it half an hour later.

If it would suit your needs, choose a charging place outside the bedroom. Use an approved charger and a stable, ventilated surface, following the device's instructions. Keep cords out of walking routes and avoid charging under fabric or bedding.

Keep the functions you rely on

Plan for your alarm, important calls, medical or accessibility functions, and care responsibilities. Test any alternative alarm before depending on it. Keeping the phone nearby may be the right choice, in which case selected notifications and a less tempting position can still help.

Try the change on a night when you're comfortable doing so. If you need the phone, get it; there's no reason to treat an exception as a broken rule.

In the morning, notice what you do before going to the charger. Perhaps there's room for getting dressed or breakfast first. The change is useful if it makes the phone a little more deliberate to use, while keeping the support you need available.
