This remembering of dreams can be trained - all the better if you are on the clock! Keep notepad by bed and pick up pen first thing upon waking up. Doesn't matter if nothing comes first two weeks. Keep doing this routine. Your brain will give in, in the end and give you the "goods".

Set alarm 5 mins earlier (doesn't need that much extra time). Learning when you naturally wake up out of a REM state is the real way to master dream recollection. There seem to be phone apps that monitor when they occur. Once you know your cycle you can manipulate your own sleep schedule to catch yourself dreaming.

Next thing is to learn which dreams are really lucid and which are body memories or mental post-processing.
