The new Bixby updates bring various features and improvements that enable users to further customize their experience. For example, Bixby Text Call is now available in English, allowing English speakers to answer calls by typing a message that Bixby converts to audio and communicates to the caller directly on their behalf. Users can also customize their Bixby Text Call voice with the Bixby Custom Voice Creator, which records different sentences for Bixby to analyze and create an AI-generated copy of their voice and tone.

Moreover, Bixby now supports changes to the custom wake-up phrase within Bixby settings, offering a new option to create a personalized wake-up phrase. The latest scenarios added to Bixby allow for a more seamless user experience, such as playing music depending on the type of exercise in Samsung Health or saving schedules in Calendar.

Samsung has also expanded Bixby’s on-device AI support, allowing users to run key commands offline, such as setting a timer, taking a screenshot, or turning on the flashlight. The updates to Bixby will be available for Samsung Galaxy users in February through a software update. The enhancements are made possible by the powerful innovation found in Samsung Galaxy devices, including industry-leading performance that enables on-device AI applications.
