Does the Note 8 allow answer/reject calls by voice?

Does the note 8 allow you to answer or reject calls by voice?

[userPEIb76LXtC]

Incredibly Samsung designers replaced voice answering feature with self answering one. So no, and in my opinion whoever came up with this decision should definitely be fired. Who does that? Is there anyone in the world that would want his/her phone self-answer every phonecall at any given time and place??? That is just plain stupid!

I've upgraded my note edge to note8 as well, and began wondering if I didn't just downgraded, and that is because few other missteps Samsung did on this one i.e. no more true edge screen  like the note edge one had, camera downgraded from 16mp to dual but 12mp, and few more....

On the camera aspect the higher mega pixels are only needed in instance of blowing up pictures ( if you do my apologies)  but going from 16 down too 12 is really in a day too day use not a big deal

Its a big deal because the price went up. Being able to zoom in and crop pictures is an important feature.

I know this post is really late. But if you think there isn't much difference between 12mp and 16mp cameras, your greatly mistaken. The difference is like night and day. I'm not happy at all with the S8 camera. I wish I had just dine a refurbished S7 swap rather than upgrading (down) to an S8.

Thanks.....I thought I was losing my mind. Wonder if it could be brought back in the next update.?

Having an option in call settings to answer and reject without bixbys help I believe is essential for users who don't use bixby by time. Please Samsung add it to an update. Make us all happy and proud to be loyal!

Correction 

Who don't use Bixby all the time!

I know this is WAY late but I hate Bixby

[userbsc110ERry]

Bixby is definitely an odd creature with a steep learning curve. Maybe Samsung should forget the folding phones and spend time on Bixby.
