Who would need to press the power button to actually turn off or restart the device, right?
The setting to change this is also pretty much buried under Settings -> Special Features -> Gestures.
(Yes, I have no idea why the Assistant is in German when the phone is set to English either 🫠)


Find me a consumer that likes it and perhaps I’ll reconsider
There are people commenting on this very thread that they use the button for things other than power, and I know a few people in my personal life which is a pretty small sample size that use the assistants on that button.
Does that justify changing its function without announcing it first? Because i had to Google how to turn off my god damn phone when it first happened to me, lol
Was it never mentioned in update notes?
Let me go back and check the documentation.
