Added shopping

I used it a little too yesterday. It's fairly accurate. Flat objects seem to work best. It sometimes has trouble reading specific words on cans and bottles.

Now Verizon just needs to hurry up with the red tint fix

Are you having that issue? I don't see that on my Verizon 8+

No I don't have the issue and my S8 plus is perfect.

But I am a little apprehensive that the update has rolled out to some of the other carriers but Verizon hasn't rolled it out yet. I just don't know what that means for how fast or slow future updates will be from Verizon. I want to see it released because it gives a little hope that Verizon maybe a little faster with their Updates this time around

I've only seen T-Mobile roll it out. The others haven't.

Updating my V S8 right now. Says improves security and screen issues.

Must be S8 only - just tried to update on my V S8+ - no go.

Found a bug in it already.

Open the camera, select the Bixby icon, take a "shopping" photo of an item.

Note that you'll (possibly) get a list of items that match the one you've photographed.

Select the "View <n> results on Amazon" link at the bottom.

On my phone, at least, this opens the Amazon Shopping app (not a browser to amazon.com) showing the items.

Now, select "Filter" and choose the "Prime" filter.

Amazon crashes.

100% reproducible on my phone, my kids' phones and my wife's phone.

No amount of cache-clearing, data-deleting, phone-restarting, or chicken-entrails-reading seems to change the fact that it crashes whenever the "Prime" filter is chosen. Interestingly, it does NOT crash if "Prime (Free One Day)" is chosen. It also doesn't have a problem if you disable the Amazon shopping app, and allow Bixby to open the list on Amazon's web-site via the browser (be it Chrome or Samsung Internet).

Anyone else reproduce this?

No. Mine brings up Amazon in Chrome not the Amazon app. I don't think the bug is in Bixby, the bug seems to be in the Amazon app. The Amazon app seems to not like the data it was given by Bixby.
