Samsung Galaxy phones are packed with features and capabilities that can make your life easier and more efficient. However, many users may not be aware of some of the amazing shortcuts and routines that can be set up to automate tasks and save time. In this article, we\u2019ll explore 5 amazing Samsung Galaxy shortcuts that will change how you use your phone.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Use Modes and Routines to automate tasks<\/strong>: You haven\u2019t unlocked the true potential of your Samsung device until you\u2019ve learned how to use the excellent Modes and Routines feature. Launched as part of the One UI 5.0 update last year, Samsung phones and tablets can now automate a whole bunch of tasks as part of the Modes and Routines app. The feature has been improved even further as part of One UI 5.1, which is now available on both flagship devices such as the Samsung Galaxy S23 and down to mid-range offerings including the Galaxy A53.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The Modes and Routines app contains a handful of preset modes, such as Work mode, which can do things like switch your wallpaper and turn your phone to silent mode when you get to the office. However, the ability to create your own routines allows you to really let your imagination run wild by creating your very own automated scenarios outside of the built-in ones.<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Set auto-rotate on and off when you open and close YouTube<\/strong>: This routine is great if you want auto-rotate on when you open YouTube or any other app but don\u2019t want to manually turn it on and off every time.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      First, open the Modes and Routines app then tap Routines in the bottom-right, then tap the + icon in the top-right to create a new routine. Next, tap the + icon under If. Scroll down then tap App opened. Now, tap YouTube (or any other app, or apps, you want this routine to apply to) then tap Done. Now you need to tap the + icon under Then, scroll to and tap Display, then tap Auto rotate, then tap Done. Tap Save to save your routine \u2014 you can give it a name and choose an icon for it if you wish \u2014 then tap Done.<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Keep your phone unlocked when connected to your home Wi-Fi<\/strong>: This routine is really handy if you don\u2019t want to have to keep unlocking your phone whenever you\u2019re at home. It keeps it unlocked for four-hour intervals when it\u2019s connected to a Wi-Fi network of your choice.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        First, open the Modes and Routines app then tap Routines in the bottom-right, then tap the + icon in the top-right to create a new routine. Next, tap the + icon under If. Scroll down then tap Wi-Fi network connected. Now, select your home Wi-Fi network from the list then tap Done. Now you need to tap the + icon under Then, scroll down then tap Security & lock screen, then tap Smart Lock (you may need to enter your PIN or password), then tap Trusted places (you may need to enter your PIN or password again), then tap Add trusted place.<\/p>\n

          \n
        1. Turn on Do Not Disturb when you arrive at work<\/strong>: This routine is great if you want Do Not Disturb mode on when you arrive at work but don\u2019t want to manually turn it on and off every time.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          First, open the Modes and Routines app then tap Routines in the bottom-right, then tap the + icon in the top-right to create a new routine. Next, tap the + icon under If. Scroll down then tap Location entered. Now, select your work location from the map (you can search for it if it doesn\u2019t appear automatically) then tap Done. Now you need to tap the + icon under Then, scroll down then tap Sound & vibration, then tap Do not disturb mode (you may need to enter your PIN or password), then select one of the options (e.g., Until turned off), then tap Done.<\/p>\n

            \n
          1. Turn off mobile data when connected to Wi-Fi<\/strong>: This routine is great if you want to save on mobile data usage when you\u2019re connected to a Wi-Fi network.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            First, open the Modes and Routines app then tap Routines in the bottom-right, then tap the + icon in the top-right to create a new routine. Next, tap the + icon under If.
