[Q] Default Navigation - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am trying to open Sygic Navigation from S-Voice with a Galaxy S4. If possible?
I don't know how to make Sygic the default Navigation app since Navigation is now part of Maps and not in the apps list, or whether or not S-Voice will open a 3rd party Navigation app?
Any help would be appreciated.

disable or lock google app/search bar in Amazon Moto G Play?

Picked up one of these phones for my new teenager, thinking I could lock everything down well between an applock app and norton family app. But I can't seem to get rid of the google search bar on the home screen and can't lock the google app in the menu. And neither of these google search capabilities are monitored by norton family.
What can I do to uninstall/disable/lock this google search app?
I installed nova launcher, but the google app is still available in the menu, and the applock app doesn't see it (since it's native?).
So far I discovered I can hide apps from the drawer in nova launcher, but the app lock apps I have won't let me lock the nova settings (doesn't appear in the list of apps). I also installed a different keyboard and locked the system settings.
Is there a way to lock the app drawer or nova settings?

[Q] Hide navigation bar in launcher

I'm using the Navigation Gestures app from XDA, which works pretty well for me. However, I don't want to use the adb method for hiding the nav keys because I heavily rely on my phone and don't want to be out of nav keys if the app should crash and I am away on business.
The built-in way to hide navigation keys works well in almost every regard, but for whatever reason there's no option to hide the navigation keys in launchers (in my case Action Launcher). It makes no sense to me because I think the launcher is one place where you need the nav bar the least since you don't need Back and Home, only Recents is occasionally needed.
So, my question is: Does any one know a quick workaround or an additional app that allows to hide the navigation bar in launchers?
Thank you guys for any ideas!

I used this before oreo. With it you can disable it anywhere, system-wide. But it probably uses the same method as xda nav gestures to do it(adb or root). With the same risks.

Third party navigation - back does not work

Hey guys, could anyone please confirm whether the back action can be used by third party apps?
I would like to use the following app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fb.fluid
but can't get the back action to work at all. (home and recents work though.
I would like to know whether it is a bug in the app (don't think so because I have the same problem with other apps), it's a problem with oxygen os or with my specific phone.
Thanks
Does it work in chrome and other browsers?
I can go back with the inbuilt navigation options but third party accessibility navigation options don't work at all.
The same applies for browsers.

Widget to display map/current location?

I'd like to show a map (split screen style) with my current location on the home page, but all of the launchers that let me do this are pretty terrible. I'm trying to build something myself w/ Nova.
Any ideas on how I can get a good map widget, ideally using Google Maps since my HU is rarely ever online. The Google Maps "Nearby Traffic" widget doesn't appear in my list.
