How To Completely Disable, Deactivate, Remove or Turn Off Samsung Bixby Without Root [VIDEO]

Is it just us or does it seem like with each new phone comes some sort of new virtual assistant? Some of these phones are even starting to come with two assistants.

Samsung recently launched the Galaxy S8/S8+ with their very own virtual assistant called Bixby in addition to the Google Assistant. Although, most of Bixby's common functions such as weather insights, search results and making calls are all doable through Google. Because of this unnecessary redundancy, we have put together a quick guide to help you remove Samsung's Bixby.
