The samsung keyboard sucks now. I liked it better before. The keys are smaller and the microphone is not always there. In my CVS app the spacebar doesn't work.

Yep, finally... mine is fine though - the keys are smaller but I have not once lost my microphone and the spacebar is working fine in my CVS App? Battery seems to have dropped but now that I've updated all my Apps, etc. and investigate, I'm going to "wipe cache" in recovery. We'll see after that...

 

[recDNA]

I always wipe cache in recovery after an update. The CVS issue seems to be in their search function once you type "CVS" for a CVS brand product it forces you to choose a category below like CVS Health Products then you type in the item. I was trying to write CVS hand sanitizer wipes but better to just write hand sanitizer wipes then scan the list. This change might come from recent CVS update.

I wish the high contrast keys included the long press alternative characters.

I have the microphone too but it used to always be at the bottom left long press. Now it is only in suggestion bar when I begin typing.

My "Mic" has been at the top for as long as I can remember, unlike everyone else, where it's lower left... I agree with you there. Maybe way back before Android 10 or 9 - I know the Samsung Keyboard was REALLY nice for a long time, then suddenly took a major step backwards and I think it was after one of the major OS updates! My CVS Test was in the Search Bar - that's what I did, I checked a couple of CVS products I needed and it worked fine for me. I am definitely having problems with my thumbs and these smaller keys for sure!!!

On my unlocked Note 9, running on Sprint, I received today the July 1 security update, which included One UI 2.1

 

[recDNA]

ya my thumbs were trained to old positions.

 

[jimd1050]

WOW... Camera Improvements anyway! Went through the phone most of the afternoon, checking out changes, watched a video or two to see what had changed - a few worthwhile "Settings" Improvements, but all in all, the camera changes impressed me the most - though, I guess anyone who also owns an S20 could care less ('cuz they've already had them)!!!

I'd love a video option to shoot gif

I'd love a video option to shoot gif

Samsung Camera>Settings>(under pictures) Swipe Shutter button to edge to [Take Burst Shot] or [Create GIF]!!! Just swipe shutter button down (in Portrait) or to the bottom of the camera, right or left (in Landscape)! It works - makes a 640x310 gif

...or are you talking motion gif?

 

[recDNA]

I am talking a motion gif and I was unable to get your directions to work. I swiped the camera button but nothing. I also couldn't find the option to create animated gif only burst shot but even burst shot didn't work.

Burst is a swipe action on the shutter

 

[recDNA]

Holding the phone vertically I tried sweeping up down and sideways. Never got a burst let alone an option to make it into a motion gif.

 

[recDNA]

Oh I have to hold it there after swiping. Didn't get that. Do I need to join Bixby Vision?

Yeah hold top circle of the shutter then slide down , no you don't have to join bixby vision

 

[recDNA]

Too late.. Can I unjoin from Bixby Vision?

 

[mustang7757]

Lol..reset the app , clear its data ,cache and force stop.

Thanks for all the help. Making a gif from a video seems to come out much smoother. I don't think I would use this method. Gif animation is too stuttered. In other words not enough frames per second apparently.

Yeah I agree, i don't use gifs
Your welcome!

I like gifs as quick vid of a procedure that I can post online. Vids are too big.

Yeah, I think it's because, the one I was referring to was only creating a stationary, single frame gif.
