Bixby launches in Australia together with Samsung Galaxy S8 smartphone. Australia is the second English-speaking country to receive the artificial assistant, with US beating it to the punch by a month. Update is rolled out progressively, so not everyone will receive it at the same time, but it should become available to all Bixby-abled Samsung devices in a matter of few days. Right now Bixby does not have an Australian-specific setting, but it will understand Australian accent, so do not worry.

In order to install the feature, simply press the Bixby voice button – app will begin the update, either automatically or after confirming it. After the update is over, press-hold the Bixby button or say ”Hi, Bixby” to turn the assistant on. Afterwards, enjoy. Or do not.
