I am 10 months old to this video, but I wanted to add that I have a routine called "Busy bee" in which I set my phone to Do not disturb and also if someone tries to call me, blocks the call and sends an sms message (you need to have credit for this) that says "I am busy bee, if urgent send me a whatysapp text", I can see the whatsapp text through my watch and decide if it needs inmediate answer or not. I use this when I need to be on deep focus or when I go to a concert or to the movies. I really enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work!!

OP taking this and implementing it on my phone!!! gonna have to this enabled manually though

[@Flash363]

The only tip I would add to this video besides Good Lock modules would be auto rotate routine to turn on auto rotate only for when you are in certain apps such as gallery, youtube or whatever client you choose, twitch and any streaming apps you may have :)

[@Patman2812]

You can swipe up on the KZbin Video to enable fullscreen without having it on rotate

[@MrFordguy73]

Apparently mine after the last update will keep turning on the auto-rotate whether I turn it off or not, it's annoying.

One of my routines not mentioned: Auto dim phone brightness around before I wake up in the morning so I don't get blinded if I decide to check my phone first thing. Can also add another to turn it back to normal brightness.

[@7PitBullz]

I don't like to keep my location on all the time. But I do use google maps alot. So I have a routine setup to turn on location when using maps and to turn off location when maps is closed. Saves you from going in the menu to turn on location or forgetting to turn it on or off after using the app

I found your channel because I'm doing some research on buying the new Samsung S24 ultra. I'm using an S10+ that I've had for 5 yrs. I'm not a person that needs a new phone every yr. It's still works fine and I love it but I realize that Samsung stops supporting their phones after the 5 yr mark ie system updates, security updates or thats what I've bn told anyway. Lol. I change my phones about every 5 yrs. I'm by no means a tech person but you make your videos very easy to follow and comprehend. I've made some changes to my s10+ following your vids to make it quicker. Thank you. Subscribed. 👍

Hey ! Awesome video. Just want to ask one question. Will the last "ad blocker" if I can call it like that work with my youtube mobile app? I heard some news about youtube slowing or freezing videos (or they wont load/takes eternity to load even short video) to ppl who using ad blockers. I have Premium... but still - can this issue happen to me on my yt mobile app? I dont see any slow yet but u know... just wanted to ask..@@TechnicallyAlex

[@guitarmaneddie8267]

Just came across this video which is going to be very helpful. I am switching to the S 23 ultra this month and taking in as many videos as I can to learn tips and tricks & useful features. On my iPhone it has four different do not disturb categories, hoping I can find this on the Samsung … Looking forward to the S23 Ultra experience.😊

[@jenniferkline4196]

​@@TechnicallyAlex I am absolutely obsessed with mine I came from a Samsung 20 LOL the reason I didn't get a new phone because I loved my Samsung 20 I was afraid that they may have changed the Samsung 21 22 and 23 LOL to where I may not like it and boy was I wrong but to be fair my Samsung 20 held it down for almost 3 years!!! T-Mobile has a promotion going on right now where you actually get to Samsung 5 watch series for free! I swear that day last week no one could bust my bubble I was having such a great day LOL

[@alestbest]

I have had mine for about 3 weeks now. The best thing for me: we are going to London soon and I will leave my Nikon D850 at home, because the quality of the S23 cameras are enough for everyday photos. Before I always carried a 10kg backpack for the photos. I love this phone already.

[@DanJackielz]

3:38 I think to avoid battery drain from always having Location/GPS enabled you can create a simple routine that will keep your phone unlocked when you're connected to a specific Wi-fi network, or networks, it works pretty great. Edit: I read online somewhere that this behavior, of using Wi-Fi instead of GPS should already be an option to save battery but in practice I didn't find anything like that in my S23 but I'm really glad these routines are here to save the day.

[@TechnicallyAlex]

Awesome tip, thanks for sharing!

[@electrocat9]

I think it reads the last location without gps or wifi enabled, too. Only range differs. The idea is good but for other purpose, just my opinion

[@ShepperdBryton]

It only stays for 4 Hours how do I change that?

[@DanJackielz]

@@ShepperdBryton I think its the same for me, not sure how to change it

[@ShepperdBryton]

@@DanJackielz too bad

[@jeremey9998]

I have a similar routine for night charging but instead of power saving, at night Protect Battery turns on. It turns off about a half-hour before I wake up so the phone doesn't sit at 100% all night but will top off in the last half-hour.

[@TechnicallyAlex]

Thats a good one

[@Dexbbc223]

Great idea! I didn't think to do that man I'm gonna have to set mine like that

[@JelksCabaniss]

@@JelksCabaniss suppose you're waking up at 7:30 am , set the routine timing to till 7:00 am, after 7 protect battery will be disabled

[@wk_ok]

the ad guard tip is amazing! website articles these days are obnoxious with the ads placements 😢

[@bithloginc]

What was the dns code to input ?

[@Horneciu]

I have whole list of routines. Rotate when in a gallery, change volume when out of house, change when using BT headphones, battery reduced to 85% for protection until morning and the same tweaks as you have, also don't lock when my wifi connected, no reading mode in camera app (for color accuracy) and auto-disabling very dark mode and other features like this on the morning (I don't need to remember for deactivate this, it just do it by it self) and this is true SMARTphone 😊

[@lukaivancic1036]

Here's one useful routine: I set up my phone while i'm at home and between 11pm and 7am to be in DND mode and greyscale mode (it makes my phone a lot more boring to use) and also if app opened (TikTok, Instagram) then app close (TikTok, Instagram) so it immediately closes them if i give in and try to open them before bed. Hope this helps :)

[@Skeletonbody]

Smart Lock is 125 meters or 410 feet, or 136 yards around the area so that means your phone is unlocked outside up to possibly the next street over, or at the very least, you neighbor can unlock it. The better solution is to put it in the routine and have your wifi and location to have the always unlock option.

[@TechnicallyAlex]

You can reduce the proximity but the routine is definitely a great tip!

[@_thechosen]

@help You can do it Neo! There's no spoon.

[@DENVEROUTDOORMAN]

Naw no neighbor is coming in my locked apt!!! Too much overkill

[@Cypeq]

it's better to just not use smart lock at all, it will guarantee at some point someone nosy at your apartment will access it.

I personally wish we could add more than 4 fingerprints. Edit: I have a routine set up when I connect to my car's Bluetooth to automatically open YT Music & increase volume to 100%.

[@TechnicallyAlex]

Same, my Pixel had 5 profiles which was nice cuz I added main finger twice so it had more data to work with

[@AlexTheGreatX]

But you can ad more than 5 fingers. When you create a profile, register 2 fingers in 1 profile. So ...for 5 profiles x 2 fingers/each you will have 10 fingers totaly registred

[@YEEZYOST]

Even you can add 10 fingers in one profile ..it works

[@DENVEROUTDOORMAN]

​@@AlexTheGreatX exactly and either finger or thumb can unlock the phone

[@albin2232]

I like to use someone else's finger for maximum privacy, but the finger starts to smell after a while, and you have to cut off another one and register it.

[@ataho1982]

also do not disturb is so underrated.. i always used to get woken up by random notifications, love this feature

[@BintyMcFrazzles]

Super video! Really useful. I used to use apps for some of these, but this makes it easier and doesn't clog the phone up with apps that I don't actually need (and the crap that comes with apps). I set up one for work (which I labelled as "Modor" with a fire pic 🤣) which doesn't have things muted, but has them on quieter. The whole world doesn't need to know when I get notifications at work. Although, it would have been better if I could have changed the notification tone for it to something that was just simple. Just a minor niggle of the third point: You have a routine to secure wifi, but you don't say *how* you set that up, you just show you've done it. I did, eventually, work it out, but it would have been easier for you to show us.
