Hello


How do I completely uninstall Bixby?

Background:
I have spent about an hour trying to disable Bixby but I just discovered that it still has access to my Camera, my Contacts and my Location. I never gave permission for this to happen. I value my privacy and I am not happy about this. 

I want to keep all the Stylus-related functionality. However due to this violation of my privacy by Bixby I now wish to remove it completely.

Hi, unfortunately, you cannot uninstall Bixby. However, you can remap the Bixby key to open any app of your choice or run a quick command.

Open Bixby Assistant Home by pressing the Bixby key.

Then, tap Menu (the three horizontal lines), and then tap the name of your desired device.

Tap Settings, tap the Bixby key, and then select an option.

You can use a single or double press to open Bixby.

If you choose to open Bixby with a single press, you can double press the Bixby key to open another app or run a quick command - and vice versa.

For example, tap Double press to open Bixby, and then tap Use single press.

Tap the switch, and choose what app to open or what quick command to run when you single press the Bixby key.

Note: This function may be turned off when you reset Bixby or deactivate the chosen app or quick command.

Agreed. No more Samsung. Going to more open source phone like Motorola next.
If I do not want or use Bixby why would I want it using System resources not to mention the "permissions" which any user allowed on accepting their user agreement.
