Hi Guys,

I just got a Note 8 and absolutely love everything about it. Coming from the 6P, I was worried about not having the stock Android experience, but Samsung apps are up to par with Google's if not slightly better.

HOWEVER...

I do use the Google ecosystem (mainly Google Drive) and have a few questions about integrating Samsung and Google apps to provide a more seamless experience.

1. When I use Bixby to search for something on Google (ex. Hi Bixby, Google the meaning of life), Bixy would open Samsung Internet to search on Google. I've went into Settings > Apps > Bixby and made sure it's not the default app for anything. Is there a way to have Bixby use Chrome instead?

2. When I use Bixby to set a reminder, it's saved into the Samsung Reminders app. When I use Google Assistant to set a reminder, it saves it into the Google app. Is there a way to default this so that Bixby saves it to the Google app? The reason being is because I use Google Inbox app, which also displays my reminders. But it doesn't show reminders saved in Samsung Reminders

Any advice appreciated!
