I was watching a video of tips and tricks for this phone and I saw one tip and now I can not find it in settings. The tip was that you could schedule the phone to auto restart. Just had to pick the day and time and frequency. I have searched all through phone and I just can't find it. I then searched for video I watched and I can't find that now. Anyone offer some assistance please.

Lol thinking too much. You can only restart your phone once a week with the settings.

Actually it defaults to once every 24 hours if you don't schedule it yourself. I bet a few of them think they have an issue because of this.

Maybe on your US-device, but NOT on the international one (SM-G955F)!
When "once in a week" is not set, it won't restart every day!
Can someone tell me the benefit of auto restart? I can do this on my phone but not sure for the benefit.
No need for that. My phone restarts on its own like every other day...
Can someone tell me if the AT&T model supports this feature or did they remove it?

It is in the AT&T model.
A great feature of the settings panel is the lookingglas. You can search for keywords and directs you to the relevant setting or section.
Feature enabled but no restart
I have it set restart ok Mondays at 5am but nothing happens. To test I've set it for 10 minutes in the future and set the phone down. Nothing happens. Factory reset and still nothing. Any idea? Does anyone know the package responsible for this feature?

your carrier probably doesn't support Automatic date/time, use clocksync from the playstore.

I don't think so, I never had this problem with other devices. my N5 just came normal after a restart, I think it's the problem of yhe OS that has some bugs...

To piggy back off of LordOfAngels,
Do you have Automatic Date & Time turned on? You can check this by going into Settings -> Date & Time.
Make sure you also have Automatic time zone turned on as well.
If that doesn't work, try reconnecting to your carrier's network.
in Settings under "Wireless & Networks" tap More. Then tap Mobile Networks -> Network Operators
Wait for it to load and select your carrier. That should sort you out.
If the above doesn't work, try reflashing whatever ROM you're on. If you're on Stock, you might want to bring your device in a carrier's store because that should not be happening if you have automatic date & time and you haven't altered your phones firmware.

Everything just came back after a normal restart. I find out that this device has to be restarted once a day, or it does perform abnormal, like the battery lasts faster and make some heat, the dial pad does not show up right, sometimes a call coming in and i find no way to answer it ... looking for an update soon...

No. I just made a factory reset, it took almost 30 minutes for the erasing process, I thought it would become brick.

You could re enable them one at a time and see if that's the problem. I have quite a few packages disabled but no problem with the screen timeout.
Edit:
Take a look at this thread on the S8 XDA forum.

If you don't like my hobby, well, I can't help you there. Mate.
Where I CAN help you is with your real problem. See, I also got an used Pixel with rattling vibration. So just go thru all the settings on the phone and anywhere you see it - disable it or turn it off. This means haptic feedback, keyboard settings, ringtone settings etc. You can't disable it all at once, you just gotta go one by one. It's a 3 minute walk, you can do it.

Honestly, I never thought ok google would work with screen off for non pixel devices... But it works for OP6.. Just tried it..
This helps in unlocking the phone will driving and directly making calls..
Apologies if you already knew this before but it's kinda new for me.. Just thought of sharing this with anyone who is like me...
Thanks for sharing. Can you share the settings steps for it.

Sure. It's fairly simple
Settings...google...search... Voice... Voice match.. (train assistant with your voice by saying ok google and hey google as per on screen instructions) and that's it..
Lock ur phone and try saying ok google.. It will unlock
Cheers
This is awesome.

Hahaha.. Probable solution would be to use a pair of earphones with mic and whisper.. Okay google..
Thanks ! I never used Google Assistant, but I may try if it is so easy...provided the permanent listening does not eat battery ! By the way, any changes in battery drain when using this feature ?

It's strange for me that this is news because I've been using custom romsnfor so long that had this implementated. It's a good feature
I think the idle drain will be about the higher than without it (this is what I have noticed) but it's not massive so definitely a recent trade off if you like the service. I have a few Google homes and they all pick up my voice but then it knows from which device to reply from based on what's nearest to you.
I've used this mainly for turning on Bluetooth and setting navigation whilst driving. Also asking questions whilst driving that I want the answer to.

I doubt if custom roms would make any difference. I have used oneplus 1 and op3 but none of the custom roms for these devices had this feature.. Interesting point you made about multiple Google homes devices and the nearest one reverts back.. Didn't know this..

If sommone Not Getting beep sound while assistant wakeups you need to enable Switch acess in accesability settings

If I try to put an app (from recent apps screen) in split window, nothing happens: the option is there, but clicking on it does nothing.
Popup mode works fine.
Any options I have to enable?
It seems is an apk I have disabled, but not sure which one: if I re-enable all it works...
Gotta try one by one out of 95 disabled APKs :-(
Found it: it was appsedge
