One of the more useful Good Lock modules.
Reading time: 2 minutes
Samsung's Good Lock provides a wide variety of modules that you can use to precisely customize the user experience on your Galaxy device. It's one of the most powerful customization features available on an Android phone.
Our colleagues at the SamMobile YouTube channel have started a new series highlighting the top 10 Good Lock modules, and the latest video provides a great look into the capabilities of Routines+.
There's a lot of stuff that you can get done with Rountines+. For example, you can have it launch a specific app with a press of a button or key when you're in a particular location, have it trigger a series of touch actions, or open a preferred website when you unlock your phone with fingerprint.
Just in Routine is another powerful feature, albeit available only on the devices that support Now Brief currently. There are a lot of presets to choose from that you can display on a card visible in Now Brief. These include reminders for watering plants, doctor visits, exercise, as well as the ability to create custom notifications that are tailored to a specific situation.
The video goes into a lot more detail on what Routines+ can help you do, and how you can go about configuring things through it. It's a great explainer if you've never got around to using this Good Lock module before.
