Personally, I had fun setting up Bixby Voice. The Bixby Home is a whole new interface to play with, and it’s also a good thing that Samsung “gamified” Bixby. You will earn points and experience the more you use Bixby. It also comes with its own settings to customize background, voice gender and more.
