2. Schedule Power On/Off Feature

If your phone is on, and you want to restart it, you can use the Scheduled Power On/Off feature to reset your phone. Follow the steps to learn how to do it.

• Go to phone Settings > Battery & performance>Battery.
  
  
• Click on the Schedule power on/off option.
  
• Firstly, tap on the toggle button of Power off time and set when you want to turn off your device. Then, set the Repeat option to 1 time.
