This was a game changer for me as well. Set my alarm to go to sleep, not to wake up (though i set that too in case i accidentally oversleep on an important day)

I find my body gets into a natural rythm. And 8 hours of solid sleep makes my mornings so much more productive.

Stupidly, my iPhone sleep settings help with that. You choose your target sleep and then set an alarm. At alarm_time - sleeping_goal your phone goes into a dimmed state that doesn’t let messages come through, If sound is on it plays a little “go to sleep” chime.
I had to disable the go to sleep reminder after I went to bed unusually early and it woke me up to tell me to go to bed haha
Haha this happened to me too, but now I set it to sleep manually, also prevent messages from ruining my early bed plans.
Oh yeah the rest of the feature is great but man I was annoyed at 4am when I still couldn't get back to sleep

Love how customisable the notification settings are now, that's an Apple win

My S21 has something similar. It goes quiet at night and switches to black and white.
