Sometimes bugs happen, such as those that affect your smartphone’s battery<\/a><\/u><\/strong> life. That’s exactly what’s happening now. Behind this is a feature that comes pre -installed on every Samsung phone. Samsung keyboard causes poor phone runtime<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have installed the One UI 5.1 update on your Samsung device and are wondering why the\u00a0Samsung phone battery<\/a><\/u><\/strong>\u00a0life of your Samsung phone has suddenly become noticeably worse, you now have the answer. Samsung has confirmed that pre-installed keyboard apps with versions earlier than v5 .6.10.31 can cause\u00a0higher battery<\/strong>\u00a0consumption (Source: SamMobile). Samsung’s Keyboard app comes pre-installed on every Galaxy device by default and is automatically activated. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not only did Samsung confirm the issue, it also said that updating the keyboard app to version v5.6.10.31 will fix it. This new version has been out for a while. Typically, system apps are automatically updated over time. But if you are still affected by significantly poor\u00a0\u00a0Samsung Galaxy battery<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0life, then you should definitely open the Samsung Galaxy Store and look for updates there.If you install the new version of the Samsung Keyboard app, your\u00a0phone’s battery\u00a0<\/strong>life should improve again. Alternatively, you can try another keyboard, such as Google’s Gboard. For example, I always install them directly on all my devices.You need to know these Samsung tips:Samsung has other problemsWhen One UI 5.1 was released, there were some issues with the new interface. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Older smartphones receiving updates suddenly have to contend with shorter\u00a0smartphone battery<\/strong>\u00a0life and higher temperatures. Now that the issue is resolved, the other keyboard bug should also be removed. Hopefully the error won’t show up next time I update.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
