Samsung Fridges Now Make Phone Calls, Identifying Users by Name
Revised Article:
Hey there! Guess what? Samsung's Bespoke AI Family Hub refrigerators just got smarter with a software update. They've implemented a multi-user voice recognition feature, cementing Bixby as the brain of your kitchen.
Say goodbye to generic fridge screens! Now, your fridge knows whose voice it's hearing and adjusts the screen accordingly. Got a busy schedule, favorite photos, or specific accessibility settings? Your fridge will show you the goods without you lifting a finger—as long as you speak up! This magical trick is known as "Voice ID."
Here's the cherry on top: want to find your phone in a hurry? No problem! Just give your fridge a shout (since it's already identified your voice), and it'll give your phone a ring—talk about smart!
Need to access your fridge in a pinch? Go ahead and double-tap the screen to bring it to life. No more shouting across the kitchen!
In a world where we crave more content, Samsung TV Plus is rolling out to more countries, including Brazil, India, and Canada. Too bad Zimbabwe has to wait. Imagine catching up on news or binge-watching a series while fetching your leftovers—talk about multitasking!
Samsung is actively promoting their "AI Home" line, aiming to make every appliance a smart screen. However, whether this turns out to be cool or a tad too much depends on your feelings about your fridge knowing your voice.
As for me? My fridge, unlike yours, still hasn't hopped on the tech train. It's just a humble box that keeps food cold (talk about living in the Stone Age).

The Voice ID feature uses Bixby, Samsung's AI voice assistant, to distinguish and recognize voices registered on the refrigerator or a Galaxy mobile device. Here's what's happening behind the scenes:
- Voice Recognition: Multiple voices can be registered, allowing the system to pick up on who's giving commands. Thanks to Bixby's advanced voice recognition tech, it can tell Users apart[2][3].
- Tailored Responses: Once it recognizes a user's voice, the system will personalize responses to fit the individual's preferences. This means asking for schedules, photos, or accessibility features will give relevant information for that user[4][5].
- Accessibility Perks: The system also syncs with accessibility settings on a user's Galaxy smartphone, like color inversion or grayscale, to make sure the fridge display suits the user's needs[3][5].
- Activation Tricks: Users can activate Bixby by double-tapping the screen, even when it's off, making life even more convenient—voice or screen activation, you got it[3].
This feature aims to provide a more personalized experience for users, integrating seamlessly with Samsung's ecosystem of smart devices[4][5].
- With the Voice ID feature, Samsung's AI Family Hub refrigerators can now recognize individual users, offering tailored content based on each user's preferences, like schedules, photos, or accessibility settings, turning everyday kitchen interactions smarter and more personalized using Bixby, the brain of your smart-home devices.
- The latest gadget from Samsung's AI Home line, the Voice ID feature, transforms your refrigerator not only into a smart screen but also your personal assistant, leveraging Bixby's technology to distinguish your voice and sync with your Galaxy smartphone's accessibility settings, making your refrigerator a truly customized and interactive smart-home gadget, immersing you deeper into the world of technology.
