Samsung keyboard took away a massively productive option.

The extremely popular and productive symbol characters on keys with long push access is gone. On the S23 and S24 You don't make things less productive. You had a popular productive idea and you took it away. You need to give the customers that option back. It is a huge mistake! Now I'll load 3rd party keyboard that still has that option. What were you thinking?

@useryAzSMgNaCP I think this setting is turned off by default. Try this:

1. Open phone settings
2. Click on General management
3. Click on Samsung Keyboard settings
4. Click on Layout
5. Click on Alternative characters
