Bixby touch activation	Compatible Bixby phone and voice-command hold assignment. Assigning volume to hold uses both sides and prevents Bixby hold activation.
Ambient sound	Adjust in Galaxy Wearable. Extra-high amplification is enabled in Labs. It can cause feedback with poor fitting ear tips.

Microsoft Swift Pair	Windows 10 version 1803 or later and compatible earbud software. Samsung Easy Pair on phones is a separate pairing route.
SmartThings Find	Registered Samsung account and compatible updated Galaxy apps on Android 8 or later. Buds+ must be charged and out of the case to emit the BLE finding signal. Saved last location can remain available when disconnected. The case is not asserted to broadcast.
