Last year Samsung introduced its own voice assistant which they called Bixby. Samsung was hoping that users would easily switch to Bixby even though the Google Assistant was already available and performing up to the mark. Anyhow, the expected happened, users and critics rejected Samsung’s attempt at Voice Assistance. Soon, we started seeing guides on how to remap Bixby button on Galaxy S8. Anyhow, the cat and mouse game started between Samsung and the developers.

Anyhow, in the end, Samsung decided to give the option to Disable Bixby button. We have already written a guide on How to Completely Disable Bixby Button On Galaxy S8/S8+ and Galaxy Note 8.
