Answering calls

[colerne]

On my previous phone, S7, it was possible to answer an incoming call by saying answer or reject. Very handy if phone in pocket. This option doesn't seem to exist on the S8+ Any thoughts please.

I assume nobody else has a problem with this facility, for what I find an annoying omission.

I wanted to like that feature but it was hit or miss. The only Samsung voice activated feature that works for me is the camera one where you can say cheese or smile or shoot to take a pic.

Sorry they removed it.

I admit having to shout sometimes in a noisy environment, but It worked well.

Didn't that use S-Voice? S-Voice has been replaced by Bixby, whose features haven't been fully implemented yet. I think you'll see that soon.

That's a thought. I'll wait for bixby.
