Bixby Voice

Although still only available in two languages, English and Korean, Samsung's virtual assistant, Bixby Voice, will soon reach 200 countries, as the Korean giant has just reported. Although this is good news, since the deployment of BixbyVoice can already be considered worldwide, we are still waiting for it to be able to understand our language. Thus, we can use the assistant but in English or Korean. This launch, at the business level, is tremendously important. Until yesterday, there were English-language markets that did not yet have this assistant.Now, English-speaking countries such as Australia, the United Kingdom and South Africa already have Bixby fully functional.

Bixby Voice is already almost universal but it still doesn't speak Spanish

As we said, currently Bixby is only available in English and Korean. Like Google Now, with Bixby we can interact with our phone and get the most out of it. Using voice commands, we will be able to set an alarm, schedule alerts and check the weather, among many other utilities. And not only that: if we say 'Good night' we can, at the same time, set an alarm, activate the blue light filter and activate the Do Not Disturb mode.

Bixby thus presents itself as a true personal assistant. He is able to understand the language and cross different applications to carry out the tasks. The example proposed by Samsung is very clarifying in this regard.If you've just taken a picture and you say, "Bixby, send the picture you just took to Mom," Mom will be able to know what picture you just took, in addition to opening the contacts application to search, in the list, for your mother. In addition, Bixby will learn with you to understand the language much better. The more you use the app, the smarter it gets.

Bixby, a different virtual assistant

Unlike other personal assistants, Bixby is not a stand-alone application, but an entire interface. When an app becomes compatible with Bixby, Bixby will be able to use it independently. Bixby will get so deep into our phone that will be able to change, for example, the screen timeout You will also be able, for example, to show all notifications of the user without having to interrupt us.

On the part of the Korean company, its plans are aimed at continuing to expand the use of Bixby throughout the world. This is achieved, of course, by making it compatible with languages ​​widely used in the world such as Spanish. The more users are able to use Bixby, the greater the utility of this new Samsung personal assistant. Who knows if the future of applications does not involve making them all compatible with this personal assistantl. A much more intuitive and practical way of using our mobile phone.
