Get familiar with modes and routines.  Routines automate a lot of processes seamlessly that would take multiple clicks to do when you need to do them (if you actually remember to do them).  Modes are a quick way to set certain actions on an on demand basis if you don't need those actions to take place at a set time or place (although, they too, can be automated). They can even help you return actions that were taken away  in an update.

Taking a screen shot is nearly impossible with the contortions you have to go through:  palm swipe - no go because one invariably swipes to a new screen or doesn't get the hang of it to actually get the shot.  Volume down + side button - awkward.  Back tap - acceptable, but you have to get the exact right spot, also awkward.  Button action routine - perfect.

Edit:  I forgot the mention edge panels. Edge panels are a great way to add more shortcuts when you run out of space on your favorites bar or don't want to clutter your screen with a bunch of widgets (stacked or not).

I made a post last year chock-full of tips and tricks, I even posted in the EU community with a link to my post when we went from Ui6.1 to 7. It still is pertinent today, because I still continue to update that post.

Split Screen + Pop-Up View

I edit Reels while replying to messages at the same time. Just swipe up with two fingers → multitasking magic.

My Top 3 Galaxy Tips I Actually Use Every Day

Smart Widgets Stack

I stack multiple widgets (Weather, Calendar, Reminders) on the same spot on my home screen. A quick swipe lets me see everything I need without cluttering my phone. Perfect for planning my day in seconds!

2 Bixby Routines for Power Saving

I set a routine that automatically turns on Dark Mode, Wi-Fi, and Do Not Disturb when I go to bed. My phone saves battery, I sleep without notifications, and wake up ready to go. Routines for work or workouts are super handy too!

3 Camera Quick Launch from Fingerprint Sensor

I double-press the fingerprint sensor to open the camera instantly-even from a locked screen. No more fumbling for the camera icon when a quick shot pops up. A lifesaver for pets, kids, or spontaneous moments!

My favorite app is "My Password" Very useful
Like a Database with Links.

Ive learned to love some of the "gestures", swiping the screen inward from the edge will take you back to your previous screen with each swipe. Just a little thing I know but super handy when youre in a hurry and need to get back to what you were just doing or in case you lose something.
