Adjust keyboard settings on your Galaxy phone

Whether you want to send fun messages to friends or type up something important, your phone's keyboard settings have got you covered. You can send emojis, change the keyboard's language, change the default keyboard, or even type things out with your voice.

Note: Available screens and settings may vary by wireless service provider, software version, and phone model. The steps only apply to the default Samsung Keyboard.

You can send funny GIFs and stickers to your friends and family, no matter what phone they use. Your phone will automatically convert them into a multimedia message.

Navigate to Messages, and then tap New conversation. Enter or choose a recipient, and then tap the Enter message field to pull up the keyboard. The toolbar will automatically appear.

From the toolbar, you can select from Emoji, Stickers, GIF, Voice Input, and Settings. Tap Expand toolbar (the three horizontal dots) to see even more options available on your phone.

If you do not like the toolbar or do not use it often, you can disable it. With the keyboard open, tap the Settings icon that appears in the toolbar. Tap the switch next to Keyboard toolbar to make the toolbar disappear. If you ever want to turn it back on, you'll need to navigate to Settings, search for and select Samsung Keyboard, and then tap the switch again.

The great thing about the default Samsung Keyboard is how customizable it is. You can change the language, layout, themes, size, feedback, and even add custom symbols.

From Settings, search for and select Samsung Keyboard, and then adjust your desired keyboard settings. You can also access this page by tapping the Settings icon in the keyboard's toolbar.

5. Touch and hold theMicrophone icon on the keyboard's toolbar.

   

6. Simply talk when the Microphone icon is active and your voice will be translated into words.

7. Release theMicrophone icon when you are done.

While you probably love your Galaxy phone, you may not be used to typing on it yet. That's OK, because there are 3 different keyboard modes you can use to make typing easier.

Navigate to Settings, and then tap General management. Tap Samsung Keyboard settings, and then tap Mode.

You can choose from the following keyboard modes:

• Standard keyboard: This is the normal keyboard view, with your phone's on-screen keyboard stretched to fill the main screen.

• One-handed keyboard: This mode shifts the keyboard to the right side of the screen. To shift the keyboard to the left, tap the Left arrow icon.

• Floating keyboard: This mode turns the keyboard into a small floating popup in the center of the screen.

Typing is about to get a whole lot more exciting. If you want a new keyboard, you can download one that fits your style from the Play Store and Galaxy Store.

Once you have downloaded a keyboard, navigate to Settings, and then tap General management. Tap Keyboard list and default, and then tap Default keyboard. From there, select your desired keyboard.

The Samsung Keyboard can help you out with Smart typing options like text and emoji suggestions. For example, emojis and stickers will appear in the toolbar as you type, so you can quickly add them to your messages without searching for them. If you need to adjust these options, navigate to Settings, then tap General management, and then tap Samsung Keyboard. From there, tap the switch(es) next to the following options under Smart typing:

• Predictive text: The keyboard will suggest words for you as you are typing. Just select the word to add it to your message.

• Suggest emojis: The keyboard will suggest emojis that match what you are typing.

• Suggest stickers while typing: The keyboard will suggest stickers that match what you are typing.

• Auto replace: The keyboard will replace words for you while you are typing. You can tap the space bar or Enter key to use the new word.

• Suggest text corrections: The keyboard will automatically correct grammar and phrases for you. Suggestions will be marked with green underlines. You can also tap Manage apps to choose which apps will receive text corrections.

You can tap Text shortcuts to add your own shortcuts for frequently used phrases as well. Or, tap More typing options to adjust additional preferences like Auto capitalize and Auto spacing.
