As part of our weekly recap series of posts here is a weekly recap of Tizen news for the week ending 7 May 2017, listing the week’s articles by category.
We have seen Samsung’s artificial intelligence virtual assistant Bixby in a series of videos and also launched on the Korean Samsung Galaxy S8, the first device, of many, that will have Bixby Integrated and we will see it integrated further into the Tizen ecosystem.
