> And of course, you can turn the phone off at night and it still turns itself on in the morning for the alarm.

I have missed this feature ever since smartphones became popular.

How come this isn't a standard feature of each smartphone by now? Are there any technical limitations?

I also miss it, as I use my phone as my alarm but there's no other reason for me to leave it on at night.
