  • How to remap Bixby/Power Key in Galaxy Note 10

    How to power off Galaxy Note 10 or Galaxy Note 10 Plus? If you are new owner of Samsung Galaxy Note 10, you may get this question. Samsung renamed and added Bixby functionality apart from changing the placement of erstwhile power key. Now it is called as side key. In this post, we will show you how to remap Bixby or Power Key in Galaxy Note 10.

    In Galaxy Note 10 and Note 10 Plus, there is no button in the right side. Instead, company moved the power key to the left side. Single press will turn on or off the screen. If you long press sidekey, it will open Bixby instead of power menu. Double press of the key will launch camera.

    Luckily, this Power key or side key is customisable. You can assign different function to side key. Let us begin our tutorial on how to remap Bixby Key or Power Key.

    How to customise Bixby or Power Key or Side key

    How to customise Bixby or Power Key
    • Go to Settings.
    • Navigate to Advanced Features.
    • Tap on Side Key.
    • Now under Press and hold, select power off menu.
    • Similarly you can assign double press to open bixby or other app.

    You can access the Side Key settings menu from Power off menu as well. For that,

    • Go to notification area from home screen.
    • Tap the Power icon.
    • At the bottom of power menu screen, you will find Side key settings.
    • Tap on it.
    • Now you can assign power off menu to Press and hold of side key.

    In one way, it is a welcome move. Because, it provides option to users to customise the key. Power off or restarting device, we don’t do regularly. So assigning different task is good idea. But if it has other options other than Bixby, it will become more practical.
