What Bix is and where to use it

How to

1. For a question in a community conversation, write @bix with your question in a new post or comment and publish.
2. To chat directly, open the @bix profile and tap Message. An existing conversation also appears in Messages.
3. To read a post in another language, use Translate with Bix in its translation row. Change preferences in Settings > Content > Posts.
4. Open the avatar menu and tap the Bix usage card to check usage and renewal.

Choose where to ask

• With a mention, the question and reply form part of the post or comment. Use it when you want the community involved.
• In DM, you can continue a topic, request suggestions and ask about your own account records. For example, request recommendations with the genres and kind of story you want.
• Translation changes the reading language of the text. The original post stays unchanged and can be shown again.

Free, Gold and limits

• Public mentions have a Free allowance. Gold removes the plan limit for mentions while retaining usage protections.
• Chat is a Gold feature. A temporary promotion can allow text conversations on Free; it does not unlock image recognition.
• Chat has a separate allowance. Translation does not spend the chat question allowance or public mentions.

If the answer does not help

• Give the title, year or context when names are similar. Ask for no spoilers if you have not watched yet.
• Bix may get names, dates, scores or availability wrong. Check the title page and sources for recent information before relying on it.
• If a limit notice appears, check the renewal date. If a failure occurs, wait and resend a short question without sending several copies in a row.
