This is a fun time to be a Samsung fan on Android. Not only is One UI 7 landing for more and more of the company’s Galaxy lineup (including new midrange devices all the time), but the company just opened the doors on Android 16, inviting users to start playing around with its One UI 8 beta. We’ve been digging through it in search of any changes worth sharing with you, and we’ve just spotted some useful upgrades to Samsung Routines.
Routines have got to be the easiest way to start making you feel like a power user. Just by setting some basic if/then relationships, you’re able to automate all sorts of tasks on your phone. With One UI 7, we saw Samsung give us a bunch of new options for the actions supported in Routines, and now we’ve got a handful of further additions in One UI 8.
