Samsung's Bixby will be able to take calls on your behalf; Here's why you should try it
Samsung has started rolling out the Bixby Text Call feature in India to selected devices. The Bixby Text Call feature allows users to use the assistant to answer the calls. Here’s everything you need to know about the Bixby Text Call feature and eligible devices.
Samsung's Bixby, the smart assistant, can now help you answer calls without speaking. Bixby Text Call is a new function that was unveiled earlier this year and is currently accessible in India. It functions to convert incoming voice calls into text conversations. Regretfully, it isn't functional for placing outgoing calls.
When Bixby Text Call is enabled, a new button will show up next to the standard answer button on the screen of incoming calls. You now have the option to switch between a voice call and a text conversation with this new button. When you start a text call, you will see the caller's words displayed as text bubbles, just like in a messaging app. You can respond by typing your messages or using prewritten responses, and Bixby will convert them into speech.

One cool feature of text calls is that the conversation is saved, and you can access it later from the Recent calls screen. This can be handy if you want to go back and review what was said during the call.
Bixby Text Call's primary advantage is that it lets you answer calls when you're unable to talk or would rather not speak out. Thus, this function may be really helpful whether you're at a conference, in a quiet environment, or just don't want to converse on the phone.
You can use the guidelines in the source link to activate Bixby Text Call on your Samsung phone. Thus, feel free to activate Bixby for text calls on any Samsung phone that you think could be compatible with this function.
