Hello guys. Title is pretty clear. Sometimes(not always), when I resume my phone with fingerprints on home button, it shows Google Now(Launcher3) screen. Because long press on home button is shortcut for Google Now.
I don't like it. I already have search bar on Home screen. Can I disable this feature on Marshmallow?

I don't think you can disable it but if you have 'Accessibility' in 'Settings', check what you have 'Touch and hold delay' set to. If you set it to 'Long' it may help.

My S5 is in finnish so I'm guessing the right english menu wording: Go to settings, Applications and select Default applications. From there select Device helper apps and choose 'Nothing'. Problem gone.
