Charge tablet and watch
Which of the two is always left uncharged? Usually the watch, because it is small, lives somewhere else and needs a cable of its own – the visual support below gives the tablet and the watch a picture each instead of one vague step.

A hand holds a tablet that is charging, and next to it a watch charges from the same socket.
About this visual support
It is rarely a question of whether the tablet gets charged. It is big, visible in the room and obviously flat when it dies. The watch is the opposite: it sits on the bedside table, needs its own little pad or magnetic cable, and nobody notices it is empty until it should be on a wrist the next morning. Two objects inside one step means in practice that one always comes along and the other always gets lost.
So this routine gains from being split. When tablet and watch have a picture each, it becomes visible that the step is only done when both cables are in, and whoever does it no longer has to keep an invisible half in mind.
A tip: keep the watch charger on the same tray or in the same bowl as the tablet cable, even if the charging spots are otherwise in different rooms. When both cables live together, the picture of the second object turns into a reminder that can actually be acted on. In Routined you can add the steps as two tickable points in the evening list, and the app can be tried for 14 days at no cost.
