- Remap the Bixby button
The mandatory inclusion of the Bixby voice assistant
is arguably the worst feature of modern Samsung
phones. Fortunately, you can remap the button with a
third-party app called bxActions. Before you install the
app, make sure to launch Bixby once, then go through
the standard setup process. Next, launch bxActions,
walk through the setup process, then select Bixbi [sic]
button to choose an alternative action. You can even
use this to launch Google Assistant instead of Bixby.
