Using your phone before bedtime can disrupt your sleep quality. The Google Digital Wellbeing app introduces a special sleep mode to mitigate this issue. In the upcoming Android 15 update, third-party apps will gain the ability to adjust wake-up settings, expanding customization options for bedtime routines.
Customizing Bedtime Mode
Within the Digital Wellbeing settings, users can adjust the timing of sleep mode, opting for a fixed schedule or activation after charging. By setting the activation time, users can tailor the mode’s behavior, including activating Do Not Disturb mode to prioritize essential calls and alarms. Various screen settings such as grayscale, dark mode, and dimming wallpapers can also be adjusted to further aid sleep.
Expanding Control with Android 15
Android 15 introduces the ZenDeviceEffects API, enabling third-party apps to control screen settings during Do Not Disturb schedules. This update allows developers to create more personalized bedtime routines, such as changing screen settings based on triggers like NFC tag scans. With these advancements, users can expect greater flexibility and customization options for optimizing their sleep environment.
Future Possibilities
With Android 15’s public API, developers can explore innovative uses beyond bedtime routines, concludes NIX Solutions.
