bxactions on Pie?

Can anyone comment on how well it does or doesn't work? I've developed quite the sentimental attachment to the convenience it has added to my habits, and I was curious to know how it's been working out for everyone.

I'm still on Pie beta but bxActions isn't great. I've set Bixby to single press. It is impossible to disable Bixby. I have the button mapped to single press = back, long press = flashlight. Long press always launches flashlight and occasionally launches Bixby. Single press occasionally goes back and/or launches Bixby. It's too intermittent for me to really use back, but it's reliable enough for the flashlight. It's a shame really as I used to use it for back constantly! However, having the swipe gesture for back on the new navigation bar (which is totally hidden if enabled) means I don't miss it too much.

Did you set it up from scratch or is this how it behaves post OS-update?

Also, did you run the ADB commands/batch?

That's post update. Didn't try reinstalling it. Ran ADB pre upgrade to pie.

Used Bixby for voice to text in messages. Doesn't work in pie beta. Still uses standard text to voice.

That gives me hope that a fresh install may help!
