      People use Voice Commands? I mean, as an Accessibility feature for the disabled it's a life saver but for anyone else, why use it?

I only use Google Assistant during googling something, I guess that is the Google Assistant or Voice, not even sure. But Bixby isn't really going away, right? One thing I never understood about it is why everyone hates it when it could do some things that Google never could due to not being able to really go deep into Samsung apps. Anyway, if Google starts forcing me into their systems too much, I won't like it, I always prefered Samsung services. I even liked bada/Tizen so much more than Android back in the day on my Samsung Wave. And I still love my Watch3 with Tizen, it has good battery life and does everything I want without lagging. Meanwhile my friend has the Watch5 and he complains it's constantly lagging :D.

          Google Assistant from 7 years ago was the best Assistant on mobile.

            Still Google has no excuses.

              I preferred Bixby literally out of spite because I hate Google and have hated it for over a decade now. It worked offline for what I needed it, like setting alarm and other basic stuff. I don't need assistants for anything else. Even that I use so rarely it just doesn't matter. The less of this "Ai" crap I have around me, the better.

                treidet, 13 May 2025Does this mean that finally Bixby will not be a thing anymore?Bixby isn't a Google search alternative. It's the best smart device assistant in mobile.

                    >Enhanced Abilities

                    Bruh Gemini trips up on the smallest of things. Even asking it to setup a reminder sometimes causes it to say "I'm an LLM and can't help with that" when it's an advertised capability...

                    Embarrassing is one word to describe Gemini.

                      I would say that zero people asked for this, but I think that’s too generous. -1 people asked for this.

                        Someone is in pretty bad shape if they need AI to remember a locker#, good grief!

                          Does this mean that finally Bixby will not be a thing anymore?
