Bixby Button as Mute?

[venustraphobic]

Hi Guys,

I was wondering if the Bixby Button can be used as Mute button during the call. Remember the Mute button on the blackberries? Very handy.

bxActions app (Play Store) should be able to do it / configure the Bixby button for this function.
See screenshots for some use /options

Don't know if this option is available in free version.
I'm using the Pro version.
Good luck

I'm guessing OP means to mute the mic during a phone call, I'm not sure if bxActions can do that.

You can try using the Button Mapper app from the Play Store and assigning the "Mute Microphone" action to the Bixby Button. You need to run the suggested ADB command first before you can do it though.

I would LOVE to be able to make this goofy bixby button toggle mic mute during calls. I have to do a ton of conference calls for work and really miss having a button for this from BB days.

Finally got back to this. Installed and enabled it. However when on call doesn't mute the call. When not on call i press the button toast message shows up "mic muted"

BxActions + Tasker should do the job *not tested.

Has anyone found a solution? Seems there area alot of "may work" but nothing has been confirmed?
