Feature request: Smart sleep restart
-
I’m proposing a featur to address the inconvenience of having to reset a sleep timer when you haven’t fallen asleep before it expires. The feature when enabled would automatically reset the sleep timer to its original duration if you pause or skip content. This would eliminate the need to interact with your phone’s screen again, which can be particularly disruptive when you’re trying to fall asleep. The Smart Sleep feature could be easily controlled via headphone buttons, offering a seamless way to extend your listening time without the need to manually adjust settings on your device.

I love this idea! I’ve shared it with our team for further consideration. I also use the sleep timer too on podcasts, and it can be hard to get the timing perfect for when you actually fall asleep. This would help!

i have a similar issue and suggested the following to pockets casts support
“I’d like a setting to enable auto sleep over night, so that between 10pm and 7am if I listen to an episode it stops after 15 minutes or at end of episode, so I can just press the button on my headset to play if I’m still awake and it will stop without me needing to look at my phone screen. It probably needs a menu option to set the on, off, and type of sleep timer. “
Thank you
Simon
