Just a thought. I have been using Bixby for a while. I noticed that there are no call fowarding command in Bixby. To do call forwarding right now, need to tell Bixby open call forwarding, then open always foward to and manually set the numbers.

If I can just says "Call forward my phone to home" or "Call forward my phone to 4031234567 when busy", that will be great. I still do *21* in dial pad for call forwarding thou.

This is just my suggestion.

Hi SnowCat19, you can try set it up. If you find a way, please let me know. I don't think Bixby support *numbers*. I even tried create a contact with *21*numbers. Bixby won't dial the contact at all.

your right it doesn't support numbers yet... let's create a suggestion post and possibly have this added in a future update. it would also be nice to put in a pause or slight delay in between actions/commands so it can finish the one task before jumping on the other. for example hey Bixby clean my phone. it would optimize your device first then a 10 second pause then start the second action which is close all recent apps then a 3 second pause then turn off the display. @Nick...thoughts?

Yes, I agree with you. This will make Bixby more intelligent. 😉😁

Yes this would be great I tried it the other day and it won't allow it,  I even have 2 contacts one called 'Call Forward' and the other 'End Call Forward' so I can transfer all calls to my work phone when I'm driving the works car as that phone is only one connected via the cars Bluetooth.   I'm going to try asking it to call this contacts and see if that works and if not I'm try renaming them.

OK just tested it and it works,  I have in my commands "Call Call Forward" without the quotes, and Bixby calls the contact 'Call Forward" and runs it successfully.  🙂
