So, my heroku NODE.js app has always been functioning and I was trying it out today again via my url but for some reason it gives me an application error message.
I read about and logged in to my dashboard and it says that the app is asleep.. I have the free tier of heroku and I understand that the app has to sleep 6 hours in a day(correct?) Is there a way to wake up my app? (NOT KEEP IT ALIVE As I have read in other posts, JUST wake it up)
Follow up: Is there a way to know how much time I still have left before it wakes up?(Because of the necessary 6 hours of sleep of the free heroic tier)

I figured it out and RESTARTED the dynos by going in to the dashboard.
I went to personal apps, then clicked my app and was in the dashboard for the specific app.
On the top right corner I saw like a sidebar(3 vertical dots)
I clicked and hit restart dynos. That automatically restarted my app and woke up.
