If Samsung is killing S Voice in June as per announcement, they should at least replace it with Bixby on my Gear S3 and similar devices. 

For now, I got Google Assistant to work on my Gear S3, but would be nice to replace S Voice with Bixby and not just kill it on the watch.

if I remember correctly samsung is ending Bixby support for older devices as well. what I think that means is the "work around" way of installing bixby via a downloaded app will no longer be supported on older devices. so I think the natively install Bixby devices (S8 and newer) will be supported.

How did you get Google Assistant working on the Gear S3? I'd love to be able to do that as well.
