This guide walks you through how to turn on Sleep Timer on the YouTube website and mobile application. I’m prone to watching enough technical videos at night before I go to bed. There aren’t any bonus points for guessing which streaming platform I use to do this. You’ve got it exactly; the streaming service is Google.
However, while watching those videos keeps me informed of all the latest technological developments in the sector, I sometimes fall into deep sleep, even while the video is streaming. This not only wastes bandwidth but can also drain battery power.
