  1. Thanks for the great app ideas! I work the late shift at DISH, and it can be hard to get to sleep right after I get home; I think I might try Sleep Cycle tonight. I have another cool app that helps me relax before bedtime; it’s called DISH Anywhere. I use it to stream live or recorded TV on my phone. It’s awesome because I can watch TV in bed without waking my wife up with the bright light and loud noise of our bedroom TV.
