The microphone button has vanished from the keyboard buttons. I've seen the solution of putting it on the navigation bar. I want to know how to put it back on the keyboard buttons. I use my phone one-handed very often, and it's easier to have it placed at the top of the keyboard to the right where I can push the button. I haven't seen anyone able to tell me how to put it back up there instead of on the navigation bar, which is supposed to be for navigating my phone, not for keyboard input. Can anyone help me?

Have you tried side-loading an older version? None of us seem to know exactly when an update removed it, but this site has APKs that would allow you to rollback the app...

In the Samsung keyboard settings you can go to "Swipe, touch, and feedback" option and change "Touch and hold space bar" to Voice Input. Then in the first page of the keyboard settings you can also change if you want to use Samsung or Google in the "Voice Input" setting.

In order to use the spacebar they force you to activate this button, so strange
