Create a Custom Bedtime Routine with Bixby in the US

Improve your nightly routine by creating a Custom Bedtime Routine on your Samsung Galaxy using Bixby Routines. Automatically silence notifications, adjust screen brightness, and prepare your device for sleep — all tailored for users in the United States.

Step 1: Open Bixby Routines

Go to Settings > Advanced Features > Bixby Routines and tap + Add Routine. This allows you to automate specific actions at bedtime.

Step 2: Set the Trigger

Under the If section, choose Time and set your usual bedtime — for example, 10:30 PM. You can repeat it daily or only on selected days.

Step 3: Add Sleep Actions

In the Then section, select actions to prepare your phone for sleep:

• Turn on Do Not Disturb
• Lower Screen Brightness or enable Blue Light Filter
• Mute notifications from specific apps
• Play calming sounds or music if desired

Step 4: Save and Test

Tap Save and give your routine a descriptive name, such as “Bedtime.” You can test it immediately or wait until your scheduled bedtime to confirm it works automatically.

Step 5: Optional — Pair with Good Morning Routine

Combine your Bedtime Routine with a Good Morning Routine to automatically restore alerts, adjust brightness, and get daily updates as soon as you wake up.
