The entire S8 users around the globe have an option to launch Camera by double tapping the power key but sadly the option is not available in India. Apparently, the Indian government has made it mandatory for smartphone companies to put Panic Mode by triple tapping power key. Although the move by the govt is highly appreciated but it has taken away the most useful feature in s8. I would like to make a plea to bring this feature by putting the option on AOD or on bixby button. IDK but i loved it on s7 and i want it back. So please do us this favor.

I think you should download "bxactions" for remap your S8's Bixby Voice button to any shortcut like camere or other. this application is free on playstore.

I have tried multiple remapping applications(bxaction being one of them) and all have been disappointments as they first launch bixby page and then goes to the remapped app. That's even more annoying. 😅
