    One of the things Im bad at is getting out of bed, doesn't matter how long Ive been there for.

    Ive no problem falling asleep, but I seem to do my dreaming right around the time I should be getting up which is after 7am when Ive been in bed for 7 8 hrs.

    weekends I go to bed at the same time and often sleep in the morning until 11, yes I mean wake up at 8ish and fall back asleep and sleep and doze for a few hours, I really would like to eliminate this

    I guess I would like to use an app for my phone to figure out whats going on

    any ideas ?

    Place your alarm clock the other side of the room forcing you to get out of bed to turn it off.

    The app on your phone is called the alarm clock.

    I understand that for every human problem there must be an app, but really.:confused:

    Phone sleep alarm apps. Analyzes sleep patterns. Wakes at lightest sleep point.

    I used to do that one time, nowadays the phone is beside the bed and when the alarm goes off at 5.30am it's straight out of bed.

    Procedural knowledge. Repeated practice become routine. Requires no thought in time. You just do it.

    Old fashioned twin bell (what my granddad used to call a "pandy") alarm clock in a steel bucket just outside the bedroom door.
