forgive me if I've been a bit too busy dealing with a pandemic and running from hurricanes that seem bound and determined to wipe my region off the map, over the last several months, to catch every single rumor in the tech industry

Check your power mode, if it was placed on high performance this could quickly cause battery drain Settings > Device Care > Battery > Power Mode you can try adaptive power saving? Settings > Device Care > Battery > Power Mode > Adaptive Power Saving (it's a toggle switch below the list of power modes) you can also use the galaxy labs app (https://apps.samsung.com/appquery/appDetail.as?appId=com.android.samsung.utilityapp&cId=000004665763) the app contains a batter tracker, battery guardian, and app booster that seems to have more functionality than the regular device care provides.

1) the weather channel has been terrible about battery drain for several years. I use accuweather (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.accuweather.android). I know a lot of times it's related to ad tracking in apps, so I'll make the disclaimer that i did the upgrade to no ads about 5 years ago & I've never had battery issues with it. 2) you may want to do a factory reset, sometimes that will clear up battery/ram/software issues. I highly suggest you make a backup. if you have a computer with enough storage smart switch does a good backup that you don't need an internet connection to restore (though you off course need internet for logging into your Samsung & Google accounts, etc.)

Fix for Microsoft Store app telling you (erroneously) that this app isn't compatible with your PC: Above link will open the appropriate Microsoft store website in a new browser tab. If you click Get it will open the Microsoft Store app on your PC. Next to Get is the ... (menu) button. If you click ... you will have the option to Add to cart, select this & complete the entire checkout process (the app is free, don't worry lOl). Once the checkout process is complete open the Microsoft Store app on your PC. In the upper right corner of the window click the ... menu & click the My Library scroll through your owned items until you find Samsung Notes, you should now see a blue Install option, click this & it should proceed normally. This was written after spending an hour trying to figure this out for myself, hopefully this helps someone else save themselves some time.

Press & hold the power button + home button + volume up buttons simultaneously until the Samsung icon pops up, then you can release. afterward there should be a menu pop up in a font that looks like it's from 1980. using the volume up/volume down buttons to navigate & the power button (im almost positive, possibly home button) as the select button navigate to the factory reset option and select. I may have missed something simple, let me know if it doesn't work & i will try on my own phone to give more specifics.
