Do you turn off up your Device?

I have several iOS devices, started with iOS just after the iPhone 4s was released. I don't turn them off at night, just plug them into the charger if needed.

Well, I have to agree w/ the others, leave my iPad, MBPro, & iMac on all of the time unless we are going out of town - will then shut down the computers (will also shut down the iMac in an electric storm) - wife has an iPad Mini & iPhone 6 which I tell her to just leave on - her iPad has a smart cover so goes into sleep mode.

NOW, to the OP, do you feel the need to 'turn off' your devices and if so, why? Dave :)

I normally turn off a device only when I'm not going to be using it for quite a while, longer than the charge will last in standby mode.

Rarely turn off as it means entering passcode rather than fingerprint when turning on again.

Good point if you have an iPad w/ the fingerprint technology - own the iPad Air 2 and in my mind, one of the best features on the device - also, love it on the wife's iPhone 6 - Dave :)
