answer command for answering calls not working?

[Charles Eldredge]

On my Note 2 I had to go settings/sounds. There I had to uncheck "vibrate when ringing" and then tap on "vibration intensity" and slide it to zero. I also noticed I could not say answer or reject as soon as the phone started ringing. I had to wait a short moment. My Note 2 did not have the same choices, mentioned in a previous post, in settings/sounds.

Guys, disable vibrate and the Answer/Reject a call by voice should work. Good Luck to all!

I found the same thing. the voice commands dont work unless the phone is on SILENT. this is not cool though because if your phone is on silent you probably want to be quiet...lol so talking to your phone is counterproductive. Anyway, yes, it works it just has to be able to hear you. I dont know how they intend on having it work with music if the mic cant even hear your voice.

No this is incorrect. My s7 edge ringer will be on and all they way up and still answer or rejected by voice with no problem.

Do you have vibration off? My works only if vibration is off but you can still have the ringer on and up.

Funny, my S7 Edge won't answer either no matter how much I scream, and when "chatting" with Samsung of course I got a nice how-to link on s-voice and told I need to have my data on I quit using s-voice on my S4 when it quit reading texts out loud anyway, I don't need it to make calls or tell me the weather, I just want to answer the phone from the other room like I used to, I'm disabled, I can't move that fast... Maybe take a picture when I say "shoot" or turn off the alarm with "stop" or "snooze". So I can see this thread started years ago and the only change has been how it looks...
