What routines do you all use that you’ve found to be helpful? I’m looking to utilize routines more.

A useful one I use is assigning the side button to activate and deactivate the flashlight.

    Google Assistant Routines or Samsung Modes and Routines?

    I have a Pixel, so I only have Assistant Routines. I don’t use them anymore, but for a while I was using one for bedtime.

    When I told assistant I was going to sleep, she would turn off main lights, desk lights, adjust my Home Max volume, and play thunderstorm sounds.

    I have a Samsung phone so I use their modes and routines.

    I only really use 2 (4, really, since you need activators/deactivators). The first turns my wifi off when I leave the area around my house and on when I enter it, so I don’t lose battery searching for wifi. The second turns extra dim on at night and off in the morning.

    I use sleep mode and driving mode and that’s really it. I haven’t found any other uses for modes/routines that I really felt were necessary.

    I wish I could set one to restart the phone every night but Samsung doesn’t let you.

    I used Automate to start the CBC app when I connected my headphones. I’m pretty sure it paused even I disconnected as well.
