8 hr shield/cooldown

To use back to back 8 hour shields (common after sleep if weekend plans for example) is especially irritating as you have to play within 5 minutes of an exact time.
Could we please either have 7 hr cooldowns or 9 hr shields so that there is an hour tolerance?

    even a 7.5 hour cooldown would be an improvement.

    It sounds like he wants to play some in the morning, before "weekend plans."

    So he could go 8->3->8, but there may not be time from near then end of the 8 to starting the next 8. I often wish I could go 8->8 where I break the first 8 during lunch at my work day, as a 3 at either end, just doesn't cut it.

    The 8 hour cooldowns are not a good design for a mobile game. There are other ways to prevent shield abuse without forcing a schedule on those who wish to use shields, and still live life.

    What should always be allowed is activating a new shield while your existing one is still up. The cooldowns are for limiting hopping, they shouldn't keep you from remaining shielded
