Bixby: A Unique Virtual Assistant with Advanced Features
In this video, we're taking a closer look at Bixby, Samsung's virtual assistant. As one of the latest assistants to join the likes of Google Assistant, Siri, and Alexa, Bixby offers some unique features that set it apart from its competitors. Big thanks to Samsung for sponsoring this video, as we get to explore the capabilities of Bixby.
Bixby is a lot different compared to other virtual assistants. While they can answer typical questions like "what's the weather?" or provide information on news and entertainment, Bixby takes it to the next level by giving you more control over your phone itself. Throughout this video, we'll be going through 50 voice commands that showcase the versatility of Bixby.
Let's start with managing phone calls and messages directly. We can add a contact, block a number, read our last text message, delete a message, take a screenshot, send a message, download an app, post a photo to social media, set a timer, search for specific things on the internet, pick up an Uber, and more.
What's particularly impressive about Bixby is its ability to use your phone's camera and photos to perform various tasks. For example, we can scan text and translate it instantly, identify what's in front of us using Vivino to get wine reviews, or even take a panoramic photo. We can also edit photos and create animations from our burst shots.
But Bixby isn't just about taking pictures; it's also capable of doing more typical assistant tasks like reminding us of appointments, recording voice memos, and taking notes. In this video, we'll see these features in action as we explore the capabilities of Bixby.
One of the coolest things about Bixby is its ability to integrate with third-party apps. We can use Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Google Play Music, and even Yelp to get more out of our phones. Whether it's posting a birthday message on social media or searching for Asian grocery stores near us, Bixby makes it all possible.
Throughout this video, we'll be using the Bixby app to explore its features and capabilities. We'll start with some basic commands like adding contacts, blocking numbers, reading messages, and taking screenshots. From there, we'll move on to more advanced tasks like downloading apps, posting photos to social media, setting timers, searching for specific things online, picking up Ubers, and more.
As you can see, Bixby is a lot more than just answering questions or providing basic information. It's a powerful tool that gives you more control over your phone and lets you do more with your device. Whether you're looking to manage your messages, make phone calls, take photos, or simply get more out of your phone, Bixby has got you covered.
So let's get started with the 50 voice commands! We'll begin by adding Michael Jordan to our contacts, calling him on speakerphone, blocking a number, reading our last text message, and deleting all messages with a certain word. From there, we'll move on to more advanced tasks like taking screenshots, sending messages, downloading apps, posting photos to social media, setting timers, searching for specific things online, picking up Ubers, and more.
As you can see, Bixby is a lot of fun to play around with. Its features are so versatile that we're constantly finding new ways to use it. Whether you're a tech-savvy person or just someone who wants to get more out of their phone, Bixby is definitely worth checking out.
