I changed my Google 'AI' from Google Assistant to Gemini. However, a long press on the Home button opens the old Google Assistant and not Gemini as expected. How to fix? Gemini works fine when opened via the Gemini app.

You are correct. I was misled by ChatGPT which advised a long press on the Home button would invoke Gemini if that is set as the preferred 'AI'. This is what happens when you trust an Artificial I d i o t

That says switch to Google Assistant so Gemini is already set.

I didn't mix anything up, I was responding to you who said that calling Gemini is not a base feature, when it is one of the features of Android 15. Or it will be in Android 16 for everyone.
And Samsung remove option from navigation bar to invoke Gemini (or Google Assistant before) in S25 series. I still have it on my S24 ultra and OneUI 6.1. That's option is Android option.

Regardless, you don't invoke Gemini by doing that and I never said anything but that. If you've misunderstood my comment, then re-read what the OP has written, then apply my response in that context.
