Thanks to bixby she is finally able to change settings just with voice . I was planning to buy an iphone for her but your comment made me realize siri cant do much with hardware or settings. If bixby can do Indian languages, not just accent for english. Then it would be awesome.

    Bixby is quite dumb for now in India. I used it earlier in the US versions S8 Plus and found it to be good, but on the Indian Note 8 it is doing nothing other than to give error messages or send you to Bing results.

    I have done a comparison here:

      laggdroids, 23 Sep 2017who cares!!! Siri is much more intellectual than Bixby...or... moreSiri can't imagine what bixby is capable of . After using Siri for years now I'm using Bixby since a month and it's far more integrated, it can take even the most complex commands and do things which could only be done by a user on other devices, give it complex commands, it'll open the open, go as deep as you want and do the task. Instead of the limited functionalities of most assistants, it has the capability to dig deep into each app and do the tasks where user interaction was must till now, it can even do things not available in most assistants like changing settings inside apps, turning off phone, rebooting in safe mode and has the capability to learn your commands even, you can teach it to do certain things when you say something.like you can set it to set alarm for Monday to Thursday for 6am by just saying 'alarm days' or anything you choose. The best thing is you still get Google assistant for to web specific smart things only Google can do. Siri is seriously an underdog now.

            what about a Bixby that replies in Indian accent too? It would be funny.

              Thanks Samsung for including support for Indian accents, i hope that their claims are really true.

                Namaste Bixby.

                  Already something (at least). Eventually, gradually and progressively it will be holistically finalized (hopefully, haha).

                    For somebody who had bixby disabled using the package disabler since launch, bixby voice is actually more useful than I thought. I'm actually using it now and it isn't so bad!
