Is there a mod that would disable the menu button on the phone and add the menu button inside the apps instead?
No. There are mods to enable software buttons. Each app is created to utilize hardware software menu buttons. In order for the app to show a menu button the app would need to create the.

If you want the software menu button to appear on-screen where would it go?
ICS solves this problem by having a flexible navigation bar where a menu button would appear if the application called for it. So if you want a software menu button, there are mods to enable a navigation bar.
I dont much like physical Home button so I am thinking how to make possible long-press Menu button to act as pressing Home button?
It can be done in Nova launcher but it is ok just in launcher but not in other applications.

The best and easier way to do is using xbuttonactions (xposed module). It can change long press action, double tap action of home menu and back button. Very flexible.

Yes but very limited, with bxActions you can remap single, double, long press and more and also launch actions from lockscreen.
Like toggle flashlight when the screen is off with a double tap..
Had a great experience on it with my Note 9 so I immediately installed it on my SGS10+. It's working great.
Thanks for the feedback, working also fine here on S10
Is there no option to map bixby on long press? I am using Google Assistant on tap but I'd like to be able to use bixby on long press.
Bixby starts on long press by default, or what do you mean?

Awesome i will install when i get my s10 plus thanks!
Screenshot its buddy. It will go back once before taking the screen
That can happen on some apps if you use standard remapping on single press. You could take screenshot on long press, or unlock remapping over a PC and that problem will be solved.
Is it also possible to set Google assistant to it? This is not possible in stock remapping settings

Which bixby system apps can I safely remove without losing bxActions
Is there a way to have the physical button press launch one app- say the camera for example and then when on the home screen and you swipe to the bixby home panel- have that be something different such as Google Now?
Bought the paid version and did the PC unlock. This could be very useful for testing and executing scripts on the fly. Love the app!

Homescreen cant be modified with bxActions. Id use another launcher for this.
Hi Guys,
is there a NavBar Button mod available to change the button behavior (single tap, double tap, long press actions)?
I would like to start the camera app with double tap on virtual home/start button.
On my OP5 it was standard to open camera via double tap on hardware home/start button.
I know that many Custom/Magisk ROMs add this functionality to change the button behavior, but is there an option to do this w/o a custom ROM?
Thank you in advance.
I doubt it
Haven't heard of any...
Why not just use the gestures? With the screen off or showing the ambient display, if you draw a circle on the screen it'll open the camera. (May need to turn the option on)

ewww navbars. There is no similar or advanced functionality to perform on navbars. Just use hardware key, gesture based functionality from xposed edge (or some Magisk mod). Almost anything you want to take further requires root/unlocked bootloader.

Is there a way to assign a long press of the recents button to call up an undisplayed menu button within an app?
