    I updated Chrome from 81.0.4044.138 and the issues seem to have been resolved. My old tablet was using Chrome 91.0.4472.101 even though it was on an older Android version. My Chrome is now current, not sure if I should update Android from 10 to current. My old tablet was running 9 I think...

    ! Shrinking? The one with the server error is allowing me to type, but I don't know why. The normal window isn't working.

    Didn't work. My old tablet used Android 9, my new tablet uses Android 10. I don't know why I'm unable to type when creating new posts. It isn't a problem when typing replies. I won't use the app.

    On both tablets I'm using the Chrome browser. The old tablet has among other things a very cracked screen and using it has become a nightmare, it's like multiple people are touching the screen and fighting for control. Sometimes it calms down and I can use it, but it has other problems. My new...

    Today I transferred my SIM into a "new" Samsung Galaxy Tab A (10.5") [SM-T597V] with Verizon, the same model I've used for years, but the firmware/software is newer. I'm unable to click the bell icon to see my notifications, when creating a new post, I'm unable to paste, use "space", "commas"...

    Question My Galaxy Tab A has recently become insanely slow, what can I do to make it faster?

    I think I deleted the cache and memory under Chrome, the tablet is still very slow. It got a little faster, but nowhere near what it was last month. I also deleted over 13 GB of photos and videos but the speed isn't improving. How do I do safe mode properly? What do I do once in safe mode...

    Question My Galaxy Tab A has recently become insanely slow, what can I do to make it faster?

    I think it is the Galaxy Tab A 10.5 (SM-T597V), at least according to About Tablet. I tried using optimize/clean under Device Care, but they just reopened. I don't understand why it's so slow, last month I had over 1,000 tabs opened in Chrome and it was faster than it is now with only 4 to 6...

    Question My Galaxy Tab A has recently become insanely slow, what can I do to make it faster?

    I'd like help figuring out the steps I need to take to make my tablet fast, also any advice on identifying bloatware I can safely remove, disable, and on improving the update settings so unused apps aren't updating in the background, and updates are happening at times I'm not using the tablet...
