TL;DR

Samsung has its own voice assistant in the form of Bixby on Galaxy smartphones. When we compare Bixby to other voice assistants, it doesnt come out on top often, primarily because of stiff competition from the likes of Google Assistant, which is also present on Galaxy smartphones. Nonetheless, Samsung hasnt given up on Bixby yet, as the company has begun rolling out the Bixby voice cloning feature to more smartphones.

Samsung introduced Bixby Text Calling alongside the One UI 5.0 update in 2022. This feature lets you answer calls by typing a message. But instead of sending the message as a text, Bixby reads out the message, and you can have it read out in your voice.

Users need to record different sentences for Bixby to analyze and create an AI-generated copy of their voice and tone for this voice cloning feature to work.

As Sammobile reports, the voice cloning feature is now rolling out widely through the Bixby Voice Creator app. Further, the voice cloning feature can be used beyond Bixby Text Calling and other text-to-speech features now, letting the voice assistant answer your queries back to you in your voice.

There is a chance that the feature is rolling out to One UI 5.1.1. We could not locate the feature on our Galaxy S23 Ultra running One UI 5.1, though it is also entirely possible that we have not yet received the feature on our phone.

To set up the voice cloning feature, you must have at least 30% battery on your phone.
