How to use Chat Assist on the Galaxy S24

An official Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus promo image showcasing the message translate feature.

The Chat Assist feature on the Samsung Galaxy S24 can be a big help when you can't find the right tone for your message. Let's say you're typing up a message to ask your boss for some time off but don't want to sound too casual. Chat Assist will offer you different variations of your message. And it can show you tones such as professional, casual, social, polite, original, and even Emojify.

The Galaxy S24's Chat Assist also translates your message into different languages and fixes your spelling and grammar. The next time you need to send a message using the S Pen or typing it out, you can rest easy; your message will be error-free. With these great features, it's no wonder the Galaxy S24 broke pre-order records.

Here's how you can enable and use Samsung's Chat Assist features.

1. Type your message.

2. Tap the Writing Assist option.

3. You'll see your message in different styles. You can easily switch between styles by scrolling down or tapping the Show all dropdown menu.

4. Tap the Copy or Insert option when you notice a style you like.

How to check spelling and grammar

Grammar is the last thing you worry about when you're in a hurry. But Chat Assist corrects the mistakes you don't have time to change. To check for any grammar mistakes:

1. Tap the sparkle icon

2. Choose Spelling and grammar.

At the bottom, you'll see the suggested improvements. You'll see options to copy or insert the corrected text before sending it. You may also see an option to sign into your Grammarly account and erase embarrassing grammar errors.

Getting the help you need with Chat Assist

A grammar check here and there never hurt anyone. In fact, it can help you avoid silly mistakes. The Samsung keyboard for Android is a big help in getting the help you need to adjust the tone and translate your message. Besides translating your text, you can also use Live Translate on the S24 so you can express yourself on a call without worrying about speaking another language.

The Galaxy S24 will get plenty of updates, so we're excited to see what new features will be coming in the future. But, if you want to know what the Samsung Galaxy S24 has to offer as of now, we've got you covered.
