  Quick and painless, lol.

  I would think most people keep their phone plugged in and charging overnight or whenever they sleep.
  At least that's what I do, and not sure if I need to have things automatically turned off during that time.
  I do see lately there are some new phones on the market that have battery life going for 2-3 days between
  charging. I wonder what they are doing to the software to be able to get such awesome battery life,
  or are their batteries inside just gigantic (?).

  Done and I agree with @DoppelgangerD most people plug in their phones overnight and even when I don't I lose maybe 5% overnight max. That's totally acceptable and I don't see a need for any further tweaks.

  Done,

  Please don't kill apps when the device is idle, at most, freeze them.

  done. Personally, I think doze should already taken care of this and I am not too sure if we need another app doing the same thing.

  Survey Completed.

  I would rather see a "Freeze Button" that would just freeze the apps your wanted and kill off the ones you don't want to run at night. It would also be to have a list were the user could select the apps and save the custom list.

  Done, voted for ZTE to do nothing here:

  1) Most people charge overnight
  2) Android does this already (and gets better with every version) - Why does ZTE think it can do it better than Google?
  3) Every time I've had a third party try to manage power it either makes the situation worse, breaks apps or a combination of the above. (See complaints about earlier A7 ROM versions for how well it works when ZTE tries to do this kind of thing).

  Survey completed. I agree with a couple of the comments above in that I typically have my phone plugged in at night so that is not a time that I am worried about.

  Done. I think something optionally tied to a scheduled Do Not Disturb may be helpful, but most nights I leave the charger plugged in. I think a better way to go is improve battery life to make sure typical use gets at least 1.5 days, and I worry a bit about unintended consequences with this functionality. I recommended an "exclude app" facility somewhere so you can choose apps that you think should be running as normal.
