Sleep Timer App ?

[billrWDW]

I looked around the site and found a few requests for a sleep app but nothing has materialized. Is there a developer that can write a sleep timer app? In my specific case I listen to a lot of internet radio on my BBB9700 and I would prefer not to use the Auto On/Off function. Just looking for a 15/30/45/60/90 minute interval option.

Another option that wouldn't necessarily be a "sleep timer app" would be an app that could reboot the BB after a specified time period.

Any developers interested? I would gladly pay for a app like this.

I think it is quickpull that allows you to set a time to boot your phone. You would have to go into quickpull and set the time you want but it would do what you want.

Yep quickpull does a set reboot

Sorry for being a bit thick, but I don't understand what you are asking for ....

A sleep for 15/30/45/60/90 minute interval option,
or
A go to sleep after 15/30/45/60/90 minute interval option

and what does this have to do with listening to internet radio?

Go to sleep after X amount of minutes
and listening to Internet radio on BB when falling asleep. Don't wan't it to run all night but also don't want to use auto on/off.

Are you looking to make the BB go to sleep, or just stop the music after a certain amount of time? It sounds like you want the music to stop (kinda like the sleep timer on a clock radio). It would probably be best if the music app had it built into the app instead of expecting the BB to shut down an app after so much time.

That being said, it sounds like QuickPull should at least take care of this (sort of) by rebooting the BB at a certain time. At least that would restart the BB and the running music app would no longer be running.

Just want the music to stop or the app to quit. Ideally, yes, the app itself should have a timer built in to shut down after a specified time. I think the QuickPull app is very similar to the Auto On/Off feature and are both somewhat clumsy for what I'm looking for. Maybe RIM will build this into their Clock at some point. Seems simple, but I'm the furthest thing from a programmer and understanding how hard/easy an app is to create.

Also looking for something like this...anything come up in the past few months?

You could always create different playlists for your music with varying lengths. And pick a different one for your time choice.

when you use "TuneIn" app and have selected a station to listen to, use options key and find "Set Sleep Timer".
works perfectly and app is absolute fantastic
