Bixby should replace with camera shutter button

    This is ridiculous on the part of Samsung, for a service that ISN'T EVEN FUNCTIONAL. SMH. 🤦‍♂️

      Worthless bixby. Not working properly, lags everytime I accidentally open it. Of course I've remapped it to "Home Screen". I wish the button never existed, as I sometimes press it instead of the On/Off, when not looking at the phone

        This is my main issue with Samsung phones.... They include a bunch of useless crap that is entirely redundant to Google services and lately they have been very limiting to what you can customize...

            I think the S8 will be cheaper if Bixby was not included...

            Samsung we have google for the Virtual Assistant feature already, just forget it...

                I could see myself using Bixby one day if it becomes useful but even then, I hit the button by mistake way too often while handling the phone.

                All I want is disable the button so I don't hitwhen I don't want to or at least have an option to long (long long) press it if I really want Bixby (or whatever else).

                  I fing Bixby totally useless. Living in Finland doesn´t help at all, even english language doesn´t work, let alone finnish, nor can I use english if I wanted anyway... Then what the bixby is now showing me, some news, healt widget, step counter, daily alarms, calendar event... I don´t need a dedicated hardware key for that, besides, I accidentaly press the button sometimes. I can´t see what samsung is winnig here when they don´t allow us to remap that key, since it is not even essential for phones operations.
                  I could use bixby button for such as opening a browser, music player, facebook or Polar Flow for syncing my sportwatch...

                      I have given back button functionality to it.
                      It will make it easier to operate with one hand.

                        This whole Bixby thing is Samsungs one of the most stupid and useless decisions they made in the last couple of years.

                          I wonder if it can be remapped as a second power button
