### Assigning a button to Assist

Depending on your watch, you can assign Assist to a button so that you can start it directly with a long or double press.

1. On your watch, go to **Settings** > **Advances features** > **Customize keys**.
2. Assign a key:
- To use double press, tap **Home key** > **Double press**. From the list of apps, select **HA: Assist**.
- On a Galaxy watch, if Assist is set as the default, you can use long press. Tap **Home key**, then tap **press and hold**. Select **Assistant**.
- Then long press the home key, and from the selection, select **HA: Assist**.

To make it more confusing: choosing HA on long press here is (I think?) Galaxy Watch specific behavior, and only happens if you have also set Home Assistant as the default digital assistant app.
