Thankfully the fix is pretty simple.<BR /><BR />Depending on the device model and software version you have, you may need to modify these steps slightly.<BR /><BR />1. Go to Settings<BR />2. Go to Advanced Features &gt; Side Key.<BR />3. Under the Press and Hold section, toggle the selector from the Wake Bixby option to the Power Off Menu option.<BR /><BR />[Galaxy Z-Flip 3/ Android 13/ One UI 5.1]<BR /><BR />If you have trouble finding this setting, try locating it using the search feature in Settings by entering keywords such as "side key" or "power menu."<BR /> Fri, 21 Apr 2023 18:14:17 GMT https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Samsung-Apps-and-Services/Bixby-blocking-me-from-turning-my-phone-off/m-p/2551029#M85106 BotMeister 2023-04-21T18:14:17Z https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Samsung-Apps-and-Services/Bixby-blocking-me-from-turning-my-phone-off/m-p/2551033#M85107 Thank you very much.<BR />I appreciate your time and help.
