My wife's phone dies every. single. day. and I don't know why she doesn't just charge it at night.

I'm just wondering how people live like this ๐Ÿ˜…

If she carries a purse, or otherwise can carry one extra item, a USB battery (looks like Amazon calls them "portable chargers") might deal with the issue. If the phone's running low in the day, just start it charging off the battery.

Then the problem just transfers to a new device that you have to remember to charge up instead.

If it makes you feel any better, my nightly routine with my girlfriend includes saying "Don't forget to plug your phone in." right before saying "I love you, have a wonderful sleep!"
