Perplexity is changing its wake word from ‘Hey Plex,’ and here’s the proof

Users of the Samsung Galaxy S26 reported issues with the integration of Perplexity AI, specifically that the app was missing from the voice wake-up list and the wake word "Hey Plex" was not functioning. Samsung described the situation as part of an "ongoing product refinement process" but did not clarify the cause. Perplexity CEO Aravind Srinivas hinted at a transition to a new wake word, "Hey Perplexity," which is supported by an update to the Perplexity Android app (version 2.81.2) that prepares for this change. The app is being updated with screens related to the new command, indicating that the transition is in progress. Speculation suggests that the change may be to differentiate from the Plex media service and address potential pronunciation challenges. An APK teardown can provide insights into future features, but there is no guarantee they will be included in a public release.
