Period and question emojis not working when voice texting

[BobInOhio]

Lately when I do voice to text, if I try to insert a question mark (?) or a period (.), instead of the actual emojis being inserted into the text, the words "question mark" and "period" are inserted into the text.

My fix for this was going back to the Google keyboard after the update and force to default Samsung keyboard, this is a real bad look for Samsung it's embarrassing how is the older generation supposed to use the phone? If they have to go through all these loops for a simple feature Samsung will continue too shorten your your customer base with this **bleep**.
