How bout it I'm 1500 points from my goal, and it's gonna take a whole lot longer now I was getting 1500 every 4 days, now it's going to take a month

I'm a little worried now because Bixby no longer shows how many points I receive for going to the next level.

It's none now, the Bixby promotion ended on 11/1. I was lucky and got the max 10,000, I started on 9/6 and finished up a few days before the promotion ended.

That sucks. I have 11,000 points. I just need another 1000 for my VR.

Try this to get the 1000 points. It worked for me, hope it's still active.

That didn't work for me.

Worked for me! Thanks for the tip!

How did you get it to work?

 

[WeAreAllUnique]

Nevermind. Samsung just came out with a promotion that if you sign up for the online doctor service you earn 1000 rewards points. I have my 12,000 now. Just ordered the VR for the Note8.

long press app switcher when snote or Samsung notes is open, automatically opens dual widow and puts the note app at the top (which is exactly what I was going to do myself! saved me a little work).

Long pressing while in ANY app will activate dual window.....

Sorry if it is mentioned earlier... but Action Memo is available inbuilt in the Notes app... Subtly...

Open Notes, write a phone number. Save it. Open it again. Hover over the phone number and you see a call button.
Same for an email address.

First time note user, so not sure what else action memo would provide.

Nowhere near the ease and functionality of Action Memo. I can't for the life of me understand why Samsung took that out.

stupidity thinking no one used it to its fullest.

as a first time note user, what extra did Action memo provide?

You didn't have to save anything first. You just wrote, clicked on the ... , and clicked Link to Action, where you could immediately access all functionality (phone, contacts, message, internet, more.....)

That's good to know. Doesn't seem to be able to recognize addresses though.

Oh yes it does. It'll populate a full contact screen if you've written it all down.

I just tried writing in an address and it did nothing.

Didn't work.

Are you using Samsung Notes? That's why. Action memo is the one with that functionality.
