Why did Samsung sneakly take Google Assistant from the Home Button??? With the Update they only asked if you would like to trial CTS. Very deceitful.

What UI and Android version are you on?  I don't actually use Google Assistant, but if I long press my home button, it comes up with the assistant.  the first time I did it, it asked if I wanted to try Gemini, but I didn't so I dismissed that. Maybe they added the CTS on the S22, because I don't have that, and I don't believe it's coming to my model.  I'm pretty sure, though that you can get the Assistant back.  You probably have to go into Google Assistant settings or Google Services settings on the phone.

I need to learn these things to eventually become an Ambassador. I use a million Samsung products, I might as well put it to good use šŸ˜

With circle search the trigger has changed. One user suggested swiping from the bottom corner upward/inward and this works. I also used "routines" and triggered google assistant to activate when I double tap the home button. Routines has great options to add triggers to your Nav buttons. Might be helpful to try both out.
