Hope this alleviates much pain and suffering for others. Navigated back out, opened a text message string, hit the mic icon, and the big blue "Tap to Talk" was gone and Praise the Lord - it works beautifully again!! Samsung voice input (toggle = on) - <<< TURNED THIS TO OFF!!! <<< MANAGE KEYBOARDS (below this, are 3 items with toggle slides) Hallelujah!!! I clicked the 4th item "(+) Manage Keyboards" and this opened a new menu page called: (Similar to "(+) Add additional language")ĪNYHOW - "(+) MANAGE KEYBOARDS" IS YOUR FRIEND!! Note: This option is only available on the Galaxy Watch4 series and Galaxy Watch5 series. From here, you can choose from the available options: Preferred engine: Select Samsung text-to-speech engine or Google speech as your preferred option. (When I saw the (+) plus sign, I assumed it meant I could add options to manage keyboards so I ignored what I thought was an adding feature. On the watch, navigate to Settings, and then tap General. This is where the 3 line items are listed with a 4th line that says "(+) Manage Keyboards" SETTINGS > GENERAL MANAGEMENT > LANGUAGE AND INPUT > VIRTUAL KEYBOARD Then, navigate through the below navigation path: To be crystal clear, here's how I accessed the setting where I was finally able to turn it off:įrom the top of your phone, slide down to see the SETTINGS (cog wheel icon), click that one! When I try to slide left or right on that actual line item from the VIRTUAL KEYBOARD list, nothing happens, (no option to disable, remove or turn off) (Hide offensive words) with slide toggle available (which was automatically on) (English) w/ option to (+) Add input languages When I click on Samsung voice input there's no way to toggle on/off. I was able to locate a page called: VIRTUAL KEYBOARD (has 4 line items listed) After numerous attempts and talking very slowly like a robot, it then will work on occasion. When I tap, it beeps and activates like it is listening then instantly stops listening. it brings up a large blue box that says: "TAP TO TALK" My previous Galaxy never had an issue, but this one (S8+) came pre-set with this setting that must be turned off - otherwise, you'll go in sane!! Tried using the step by step instructions of a Verizon post to locate this setting in my SPRINT S8+ to try to get the text to speech working but the navigation path was not accurate for my case and probably others (apparently the navigation for the phone is different from Verizon).ĪFTER MUCH STRESS, I FINALLY LOCATED WHERE/HOW TO FIX THE PROBLEM!! So happy!
