Customise the keys on your Note10

The new Note10 has two physical keys on its left side: the Volume key and the Side key. The Volume key - obviously - can be pressed to adjust the phone’s volume. The Side key, or Power/Bixby key, can be short-pressed, long-pressed, or double-pressed to access various functions.  

The keys have their own separate functions, and together can be used to create your own shortcuts for a more streamlined experience. 

Here are the default key functions you can use: 

• Screen on or off: Short-press the Side key. 
• Bixby Voice: Long-press the Side key. 
• Launch Camera: Double-press the Side key.
• Power on: Long-press the Side key while the phone is off.
• Power off menu: Long-press the Side and Volume down key simultaneously while the phone is on. 
• Screen capture: Short-press the Side and Volume down key simultaneously. 

Maybe you’re used to that key just doing one thing - like waking up Bixby. No worries, you can customise the key to make it work for you.

From Settings, search for and select Side key, and then tap Side key again. Here you can select your desired settings. 

For Double-press, you can choose between:

• Quick launch camera
• Open Bixby 
  
• Open app (Tap the Settings icon to select an app.)

For Press and hold, you can choose between: 

• Wake Bixby 
• Power off menu
