Have you gave it a good used to it? Or it’s like a NPC? I use it for Shazaming music and I couldn’t find a better use for it. Its good honestly.

    I just use it for the camera, but I can’t believe they don’t have a double/triple/long press option to set it for different things.

    it’d be better if it was below the volume buttons instead of above them. i set mine to shazam cause the lockscreen camera button is easier to press quickly without fumbling. (same for flashlight)

    Been loving it as a camera button on my current vacation. Taking pics with gloves on is finally achievable.

    I use it for flashlight. It’s way better than fumbling on the screen at night when I need to turn it on quickly. That’s the best use I could find.

        Got to Settings and search for “Action button”. You will be able to choose between Flashlight (it’s called Torch), Camera and a bunch of other stuff.

      I do too, but I’m always hitting it on accident, thinking it’s the up volume. I’m recently a Motorola user, and I could just shake the phone to get the flashlight.

    I have shortcut attached to it but I barely use it. I do not like you have hold it. Rather see option to tap it to go into action. Shortcut opens menu to pick various things.

    I use it as a silence button. But honestly it gets pressed accidentally often which sucks compared to the switch where that never happened.

    I wish I could map multiple actions to it depending on button press. IE long press opens camera and short press mutes device. If it can do that I haven’t figured it out yet.

    I’ve kept it as the silence button and use it fairly often for that. I use my triple-backtap for Shazam.
