Hello,

my power button isn't working since a week or two - not terrible currently.
But once in a while I'd like to restart my phone. And since I thought about that it might be nice to be able to switch it on after the battery dyed out in case that happens.

It's not rooted. Can I do this somehow with an app or so?
I guess Android Debug Bridge would be an option but seems to be a huge detour for a simple restart.

Thanks,
Chris
