THE samsung released a new update for the app Bixby Voice. The new build of the software brings new features, a minor UI redesign, as well as performance improvements and bug fixes.

the new version 3.2.45.16 comes with a feature called “Voice Filter”, which promises to improve speech recognition performance in noisy environments by filtering out other people’s voices and ambient background noise.

According to the changelog of the update, Voice Filter is automatically activated when the user activates the option ‘Reply to my voice’ and ‘Mode on device’ in the app settings. The update also offers some bug fixes.

A few months ago, Samsung added a tool called “Talk to Bixby without waking”. The feature allows users to ask the virtual assistant to answer an incoming call without saying the “Hi, Bixby” wake-up command.

However, it only works with the native mobile app. Already with the latest update, Samsung is expanding the feature to third-party apps so that users can answer a call by just saying “answer the call”.

Bixby Voice 3.2.45.15 is currently only available for Samsung devices with android 13 and OneUI 5.0. As the company is rolling out the update gradually, some users may receive it earlier than others.
