In the UK this integrates the Upday new service (accessed via a left-swipe on the screen) or Flipboard for those elsewhere and pulls in cards from supported apps.

For those not diving into the full voice service - or those who can't get it because it's not supported in their country - then there's Bixby Home. Samsung has said that the supported apps will quickly increase, but there's plenty of question here still to be answered. Samsung relies on some core Google apps for the experience it offers - like Play Music and Google Maps, apps that definitely need integration. Samsung has also said that it plans to support third-party apps through an SDK, but the big question is surrounding Google apps. Phone, Messages, Internet, Gallery, Camera, Contacts, Settings, BixbyReminder, WeatherĮxactly what Bixby does with Bixby, I don’t know. This is where Bixby will hit rougher ground, because of the variety of apps that you'll have on your phone.Samsung hasn't detailed what those apps will be, but it's confirmed to work with: Samsung has confirmed that Bixby will be integrated with a number of apps, detailing that it would support 10 native Samsung apps at launch. The best bit about Bixby Vision is that it's not dependent on the full Bixby voice service, with direct access through the camera, so even those who don't get the full Bixby service will get Bixby Vision. Identify The Shard in London and suggest local restaurantsRecognise a box of Lindt Lindor (strawberries and cream flavour) and suggest shopping optionsSpot a bottle of Casillero di Diablo and offer details on the wine These then lead into more information, once the device has been identified. This is a great feature, but one we've used plenty of times before in other apps.īixby Vision will essentially identify whatever the camera is pointed at, with options presented depending on what it sees, offering to identify an image, place, text or go to shopping options. Working in a similar way to Google Goggles or the Amazon shopping app you can either ask Bixby what something is, or open the camera app and hit the Bixby Vision button. If you are wondering the same then here are the things Samsung’s Bixby can do for you: Device controlīixby Vision offers a range of functions that take advantage of the camera on the phone. It also has some nifty features that none of them will offer such as Device Control, Samsung vision and so on. The Competitionīixby has a tough competition from Google’s Ai, Apple’s Siri, Amazon’s Alexa and Hound but believe me it’s a little bit different from all of them while Google, Apple, Amazon and Hound can only work if you are connected to network (Online) Bixby is only one that can be used online and offline both but some features will only work if you are online. It could be “ Hi bixby” or something else. However I am not sure about the exact voice command that is used to wake this AI up. This is used to open the Bixby agent so that you can speak a command. On the Samsung Galaxy S8 and S8+ there is a Bixby button on the left-hand side of the phone.
Natural language recognition has been key to the rise of Alexa, for example, and is now a key element of modern AI. This will mean that Bixby can recognise the state that the app is in and take the right actions based on your requests, also letting you mix voice or touch.Bixby understands natural language: this means that you don’t need to use set phrases, but you can give incomplete information and Bixby can interpret and take action. Bixby is contextually aware: this is one of the buzzwords of AI, demonstrated by Google Assistant, for example. Samsung says that Bixby will be able to do just about everything you can do with an app using touch. Featuresīixby is a complete solution: it is designed to let you carry out a full range of interactions, rather than launching an app for example, or carrying out a single task. It was launched in Samsung Galaxy S8 for the first time but is designed to work across a range of Samsung products. Bixby is an AI system that’s designed to make device interaction easier, specifically designed to avoid the complexity of increasingly fully-featured devices.
