Using the voice on a samsung

Does it cost to use the voice command

Hi 

Do you mean S Voice?

No, It didn't cost me anything on my old S3

I'm not familiar with how voice commands work on android phones, on an iPhone though a data connection is required so using it will use a small amount of your mobile data or will cost you if you don't have a data bolt on (although you would have to be mad to own a smartphone and not have a data allowance of some kind)

It may well be the same for voice commands on a samsung

Thanks. I have numerous questions. I am not a young user so when I got this upgrade it was all good but there are so many things you can do but I don't know if they cost more. Example, using the e-mail service?

Hi

To use e-mail you will need data connection, either mobile data or wifi.

What is your monthly data allowance?

[davethorp]

Again, email would use mobile data unless you are connected to a wifi network. If your tariff includes a data allowance which it is highly likely to any emails you send or receive will come out of this allowance. If you use up the allowance you will need to buy a new one or wait for your next billing cycle to reset your allowance.

About monthly data, I am going into the site and find out. As I say, I am not a young person and have nobody nearby to help me. Shall be back in a minute.

That's quite a small allowance. Would cover very light use, possibly some web browsing and email. I wouldn't start streaming videos or music anytime soon though
