Whn I first got my S9, I read where you could set the home button to "bring up" a shortcut that was on the phone using a long hard press.
I set it to bring up Startpag.
I want to change it now and have forgotten how I did it.

Could someone detail the steps I have to take to change this?

Thank you,
Paul
 
Here you go. Under display, nav bar.

Went to "More actions" and found "Default Assist App" info where I could change what would come up when the home button was hard pressed.
NOW, how do I add a new shortcut to this list so I could set it with the home button?
I didn't see a way to search/add a new item to the list.
Therr must be a way because I originally did it!!!!!!!
 
Ok, thanks.
Now would like to know how to add apps to the list in "Default assistant".
I have Startpage on this list now but can't remember how I put it there.

Not quite understanding. Which assistant, and do you mean home screen?
 
OK, this should clarify where I am.

Go to:
Settings > Display > Navigation Bar> Default assist app (at bottom of screen, in blue).
A list will show. I would like to add to this list.
Then I can set my hard/long press of the home button to bring up that page.
I currently have Startpage active, but would like to change it.

So, I am looking for a way to add to yhis page so I can customize my home button press.
Thanks.
 
If you scroll down on that page, you should see the first screenshot, and then follow to the 2nd.

Thanks. I am on the page that you sent.
This is a list of apps, as you show.

NOW, how do I add apps to this list.
There is no other page next or a menu to add apps.

Any suggestions?
 
If there is a way to add an app not designed for this, I don't know how to add it. There may be a way to rename the apps you want to choose, or change their permissions. Maybe someone can jump in here.
