Where did my text 🎤 go

Anyone else have their talk to text microphone disappear? I tried to Google what to do by my settings and what it suggested do not match

Mine moved to the bottom left of my phone next to my back button.

The setting may have gotten turned off in the update.  Have you gone to settings/general/keyboard list and default and made sure the "show keyboard icon on navigation bar is still on?"  If it's not, you will have to turn it on and then reconfigure it to be the voice input by long pressing the icon.

Nicely done! Its back.

By chance have you heard anyone saying their Google voice to text stopped working with the Samsung Keyboard? I've cleared the cache, uninstalled and it won't work.
I can only use Samsung as my voice option and it's horrible!

This is the first I'm hearing anything like that. As an experiment, see if you can use the Google voice engine with the Google keyboard. If you can't, it could be a problem with Google voice input on your phone, or something in your configuration is interfering. You can try tebooting to safe mode and seeing if Google voice input works with the Samsung keyboard.

I can. I just don't like the look of Gboard lol. I reached out to Gboard as a beta tester, I haven't heard back.
I designed my keyboard on Goodlock, but with Samsung voice, it puts periods where ever, spells out punctuation marks, ugh!

It's just an experiment to see if it's the Google voice engine itself or the Samsung keyboard. You don't have to keep using it.
