Auto punctuate and auto capitalize not working?

[AC Question]

In my Android email app on my S7, it no longer puts a period automatically at the end of a sentence when hitting double space. Also it doens't auto capitalize the first word of a sentence. This used to work. The keyboard settings are set up properly.

Getting capitalization and punctuation settings is tricky. I was having the same problem and followed all suggest method but nobody mention the tricky part. Do as follows...Go to Settings>General Management>Language Input>Virtual Keyboard then press and hold Samsung Keyboard that appears under Virtual Keyboard and all smart typing options will pop up including Auto capitalize and Auto punctuate. Hope this will help others.

Don't delete my reply between tabs!?

I began a reply to the auto capitalization thread. I simply clicked my window tab button on the left of my good old J3 Samsung to check a text. When I came right back here ALL my text was missing from box!? And the auto save thingy did nothing! Actually it sent me back atop again! HELLO? And this was my first time using this Android Central forum too! If you want to keep a star celebrity such as myself, FIX IT!! There's no reason text should be all gone just because you switch tabs for a sec! Unacceptable! I'm calling cooperate headquarters immediately! What's the #!? 800.androidcentral? Heads shall roll! Oops gotta go! Cya! I have to sign autographs for all my fans now.
