  • Hi everyone! This is my first time posting here. My name is Stephanie and my question is about the task bar above the keyboard on my Samsung Galaxy Tab s9 FE. I am disabled and use a mouthstick on the touchscreen to navigate online and do everything else on my tablet. I like to use emoji icons in my messages and this poses a problem for me as the emoji button is located on the far left of the bar. See, the s9's screen isn't as responsive to my stick as I'd like. If I tap with my stick at an angle nothing happens, it's plenty responsive if I tap anywhere holding it straight at an object or key. I was wondering if it were possible to rearrange the order of the buttons to bring the emoji one closer to me.

  • I was also wondering if there are any plans for Samsung to make it possible to keep the assistant menu open to the cursor while the keyboard is open. This would be a great help to me, personally, and would solve my emoji issue, too. I don't know if anyone from Samsung will read this message of mine, but I wanted to say thank you for the accessibility features that are included on both my Samsung tablets. I've not seen anything accessibility-wise like yours provided by any of the other electronic companies that I've bought devices from over the 30+ years since I have been a consumer. The thoughtfulness behind this measure to ensure that the disabled community can use your products as independently as possible shines through, and means more to me than I could ever convey in these mere words, but I sincerely thank the staff members behind the creation of the assistant menu. 
Warm regards,

Stephanie

You can press, hold, and drag items on the toolbar to the position you find most convenient for you. If you download and switch to Google keyboard, the emoji button is not only on the toolbar, but also next to the space bar.
