Preserving the battery life of our smartphones is important for those of us who want to keep and use a specific device for more than a few years. Charging quickly certainly adds a layer of convenience, but it comes at a cost when the phone ends up getting too hot.
I've already shown you how to manually turn off fast charging on your Samsung Galaxy smartphone, but having to turn these features on and off can be tedious. So in today's video I want to show you how to use Bixby Routines to program your phone to stop charging so quickly at night (or wherever you choose to sleep).
This should work on all modern Samsung Galaxy smartphones, but you can find out if your phone is capable of doing this by opening the Settings app and searching for Bixby. If you see Bixby Routines listed here, you should be able to set them up on your phone.
If you don't want to use Bixby routines. . .or maybe you have a custom ROM installed on your device. . .you can always use a slower charger wherever you put your phone at night when you sleep. At my bedside I have a /"slower/" USB charger that I got from Amazon, which you can find a link to in the video description below.
But if you are limited on space. . .or maybe you don't want to buy another charger and cable. In this video you saw how useful Bixby Routines can be when planning something like this.
