Stop playing music on your iPhone automatically at a specific time

Configure your iPhone or iPod Touch to stop playing music after some time.

When you use your iPhone to listen to music when you hit the bed you might appreciate the fact that you can set your iPhone or iPod Touch to stop playing music after a specific interval.

You can make use of the timer feature on your iPhone to sleep the iPod feature of your iPhone when the timer expires. Here is how,

When you come back to the Timer page you should be able to see the “Sleep iPod” displayed on the ‘When Timer Ends” button.

You are all set to make use of the timer to sleep your iPod (feature on your iPhone) automatically. Now, when you hit the bed and you know you’ll fall asleep in the next 30 minutes, get to the “Timer” tab and adjust the time to, say, 35 minutes and tap the “Start” button.

Once the timer starts you should be able to see the countdown timer running on your iPhone from the time you set before you started the timer and and when that hits the all-zero mark your iPod will automatically sleep.

I hope you make use of the timer feature on your iPhone to automatically stop playing music on your iPhone when you go to sleep.

    You can also try AutoSleep ( http://bit.ly/autosleep ) that detects when you fall asleep and turns the music off automatically.

    No need to set a specific time, it will use the iPhone sensors to detect your sleep phase!

    It’s for real! Check it out
