Summary

  • Samsung Galaxy phone users have access to an automatic Routines tool which can complete simple, repetitive tasks for them
  • Triggers to initiate the routine include times, locations and phone settings such as Do Not Disturb and low battery
  • Actions which can follow a trigger include notifications, display settings, Bluetooth settings and the ability to launch an app or specific functions such as making the phone vibrate or turning on the flashlight
  • Examples of routines that can be set up include disabling notifications when using the Samsung Health app or muting the phone during a meeting
  • Users can also create their own routines based on their personal preferences, with plenty of inspiration available from pre-set routines.

To create a new routine, Galaxy phone users should go to Settings, Modes and Routines and then the Routines tab, before tapping the + button, selecting a trigger, condition and action, and saving the routine, which can then be named and coloured for ease of use.
