Android Central Question

Hi,

Sometime, when I am typing and I hold a key down to get the special character (i.e. hold the 'a' button down for the '!' special character), instead of the special character, the phone produces a double of the letter held down. This has been happening sporadically for the past week or two, I will have to delete the double letter and then retry the hold, which usually works. As far as I am aware, the issue happens in Verizon Messages, Snapchat, e-mail, and Inbox.

My phone is a Samsung S7, Model SM-G930V, Android Version 7.0.

Appreciate any help anyone is able to provide, please let me know if you need to know anything else!

Thanks!
