Do you turn your iPhone off at night?

Yea like anyone who breaks into an occupied home just might not consider cutting the phone line outside first. Just sayin'!

Never even crossed my mind until now. Haha
Yet they come with a on/off switch
Thats just so you can turn them off when the airline is so anal that airplant mode is not good enough. Oh and so you can turn them on when you flatten them too
Nope never especially since I am on call ever other week, but I do close all the apps and power it off and on every other week just to clear out the cobwebs
I don't have a landline so mine stays on all the time. Even if I did have a land line I probably wouldn't turn it off.
Nope, she stays up all night anxiously awaiting an the 500 emails I get throught the night from Living Social... She is such a trooper
I only turn my phone off to fix any network problems I'm having. Usually doing resetting network through the iOS doesn't seem to work.
As with most people, my phone is on 27/4/365. No reason to turn it off. I dock it and charge it everynight, and it's also my alarm clock... except for weekends, it gets the "silent" treatment when I go to bed.
Don't really see the benefit of turning it off.

I guess I'm the only person in the whole world that turns their iPhone/iDevices off at night.
Heck, like I said, I turn my iPad off when I'm done using it.
I turn my iPhone off every night. Why?
- Saves battery
- no interruptions while I am sleeping
To me this is like asking if I unplug my landline from the telephone jack in the wall (Mind you, I barely remember where my landline is anyway, I think it received a call back around March sometime...). I don't understand why you would want to, let alone serving any particular purpose?
No. I leave mine on 24/7, here's my reasoning:
I am afraid of missing a call late at night from a family member or friend that got hurt, something happened or death. It's my fear that I will not receive the call because of sleep.
But, on those rare nights I do hate getting those drunken calls and if thats the case, I turn it off completely.

That's one that I just don't understand at all. Why do people not plug their phones in at night? The electricity costs to charge a phone are minuscule, and you end up with a fully charged battery every morning - why wouldn't you? This makes even less sense to me than turning the phone off at night
