The Galaxy S10 is yet to hit the shelves, but the lucky few who have their hands on it aren’t too pleased about some of the practices that Samsung is engaging in. Users have asked for the ability to remap the dedicated Bixby button ever since it existed, but the ability to do so was only granted to Galaxy S10 users. The feature is slated to make its way to older devices eventually but is only limited to Samsung’s 2019 flagship for now.

Yesterday, the Samsung Galaxy S10 received its first update which allowed users to remap the Bixby button, among other things. Ideally, users should be able to remap the Bixby button to open an app of their choice, but that doesn’t seem to be the case. Senior editor of The Verge, Dan Seifert, noticed that Samsung wouldn’t let you remap the Bixby button to open Google Assistant.
