How do I turn on the microphone on my keyboard for the Galaxy S9+?

[Android Central Question]

It says I must go to settings and grant permission to use this feature but it appears that it has permission. Can someone walk me thru that?

This is insane. I stayed up for hours last night trying to get my 'MICROPHONE" to work so I could voice text. When following instructions through General Management, it lists Samsung as the preferred app..(Not Google) Samsung is the problem. Use the google..This fixed it! Whats going on Samsung??

or you could have went into the keyboard settings, keyboard layout and feedback, then turn the keyboard toolbar on. personally i use the blackberry keyboard and all you have to do is hold down the comma (has a small microphone on it) to get voice text to work
