A keyboard app that doesn’t work can be problematic because you can’t type to find the solution. If you have a Samsung phone and its keyboard isn’t working, here’s what you should do.
1. Make Samsung Keyboard Your Default Keyboard App
If you have multiple keyboard apps installed on your device, they can conflict with each other and prevent one from functioning properly. The best bet is to remove any additional keyboard apps installed on your device.
1. Launch the Settings app.
2. Tap on General Management.
3. Tap on the Keyboard list and the default.
4. Tap on Default Keyboard.
5. Select Samsung Keyboard from the list of all available keyboard apps.
2. Restart your Samsung Galaxy Phone
Restarting your Samsung phone at regular intervals is a good idea, as it gives your device time to cool down. During the restart, your phone installs the pending updates.
To restart your Samsung Galaxy phone, long-press the Power button and select Restart.
3. Remove Third-Party Keyboard Apps
Even if the Samsung Keyboard is set to use as the default keyboard app, chances are that the third-party keyboard app installed on your phone still runs certain processes in the background.
You should uninstall all third-party keyboard apps on your phone. To do so, long-press the keyboard app icon and select Uninstall.
4. Make Sure the Bluetooth Keyboard is not connected
A Bluetooth keyboard prevents the on-screen keyboard from appearing. So, if you use a Bluetooth Keyboard with your smartphone, it’s time to disconnect it.
To fix the issue, turn off Bluetooth connectivity on your phone. Once Bluetooth is disabled, open any messaging app and tap the text field.
5. Select the One UI Home Launcher as Default
Third-party launcher apps often have their own keyboard, which could be the reason your Samsung Keyboard is not showing up. If you use a third-party launcher app to improve the look of your home screen, try turning it off or switching back to the default home launcher.
1. Launch Settings.
2. Tap Apps.
3. Tap Choose default apps. Select the Home App.
4. Select One UI Home.
6. Free Up Storage Space
If your phone is running a sort of storage space, it could be a reason for the on-screen keyboard not working or taking a long time to appear. Your phone should have sufficient storage space for proper functioning.
1. Launch Settings.
2. Tap Battery and Device Care.
3. Tap Storage.
4. Scroll down and clean the Recycle Bin items and Unused apps.
7. Force Stop the Samsung Keyboard
Force stopping may remove all bugs and glitches that may be preventing the Samsung Keyboard app from functioning properly. If you’ve come this far and the issue is still not fixed, it’s time to force-stop the Samsung Keyboard app.
Simply open Settings and navigate to Apps > Samsung Keyboard. Tap on the Samsung Keyboard app and tap on Force Stop.
