Here's a little trick: with quick commands, you can have Bixby perform multiple commands at once! For example, when you say, "I'm driving," Bixby can turn on Do not disturb mode and also enable your location so you can use Google Maps. You can also issue commands when using On-device mode. Make sure to check our full guide on quick commands to learn more.

1. When Bixby responds, the answer to your question or the command you made will appear bolded.
2. Tap the bolded answer or command at the top of the screen.
   
   Note: This will only appear for certain commands or actions.
   
3. If Bixby heard you incorrectly, tap the phrase under "What I heard."
