Auto Coffee Machine - app controlled or timer?

Can anyone recommend a coffee machine that one could prep at night (fill with beans and water) and in the morn use an app to get it going so I have a nice cup of strong coffee waiting for me when i get downstairs?

In terms of quality I am not looking to spend much, this is a way of getting me up early and out to the gym before work without any time to sit and think (if I do I will go back to bed haha)

Any help appreciated,

OK so a colleague just mentioned this to me...https://www.amazon.co.uk/Russell-Hobbs-Coffee-Machine-22630/dp/B00VROB1DS

and I came across this on the same page...

Has anyone any experience with either of these or similar? Would you recomend?

I bought a Breville Coffee Express a few years ago which is virtually the same as the two machines you linked. It's basically just a single cup/mug drip machine, fast yes but the coffee was weak unless you used a fine (espresso) grind. I also had to preheat the travel mug or my coffee would be cool within a short amount of time. The Breville didn't have a timer but the coffee would be brewed in less than five minutes.
