Been considering this for a while; Samsung's built inModes and Routine functionality at a hardware level can be incredibly useful, and a powerful automated box of tricks -BUT despite it's easy to use'If This, Then That' (IFTTT) input, sometimes you don't know what the possibilities are...so..in steps this thread...

Pleaseshare your routines or share ideas for routines tohelp, support and inspire others. 

One UI 7(or at least the S25 series) can provide prompts and suggestions based on usage, and Routines+ in GoodLock gives even MORE functions.

I have submitted feedback to Sammy suggesting there is an option to share routines directly but until then👇👇👇👇👇👇👇

Not at the moment. Making AI work for me. 😂
Letting the phone learn my usage and adjust accordingly 😊

To add I have been using the S24 ultra and now the S25 ultra and find most of these routines redundant now or not necessary.

I've set a routine so that when the phone is connected to my home network it turns on extend unlock. I find it's more reliable than using a location for extend unlock.1740387583258.jpg

I also have a routine to turn on mobile hotspot when my phone is connected to my vans Bluetooth. The head unit in my van then uses my phones data.

+1 for Routines and Modes, but another app Samsung needs to show more love as it is awesome.

For basics i use it to for timed, concidtional device switch on or off.
Beyond that location and tim based watch faces and sound modes.
Best ones are for location tracking, arrive at, left ...

Problem is as you get a taste for it, your realise most non Samsung apps don't play with it, but thats like every OEM ecosystem so not just Samsung.

I find the powers of Modes and Routines immense, albeit hidden. I can't wait to see what creative automation comes up, especially with Routines+ and One UI updates down the road.
