I don't use google and I don't want to use Google. Even if i'm not asking Bixby to do anything not related to searching the web. When it can't find something on my tablet, it willI go to search Google. It will immediately open Samsung Internet and go to Google. I want to change the search engine. To one I use if it's gonna be searching the Web. I definitely want to change it. I do not use google at all, for any reason.

Does anyone know how to change it?

You can't. Bixby is set for google. You can set your search engine to something differently but won't be able to use Bixby.

Actually, my search engine is something different, and I can use Bixby. The only way I can force Bixby to use another search engine is to set it up in Bixby's routines. It's slower but doable. An actual menu would make it a lot faster and easier.

Oh wow... I've never gotten it to work on a different one, but I don't use modes and routines either.

Not the modes and routines app. There is another one inside Bixby.

Wondering reasons people get so upset with Google?
I usually use Brave or DuckDuckGo, but still appreciate Google

Read their terms agreement, and I don't agree with it, so I never leave a Google account running on my devices.

The search is bad. Too junky and cluttered, and I'm used to seeing clean web pages. I don't see ads, pop-ups or banners. Just a clean experience.
