POSTING FROM MOBILE PHONE


How do I start new paragraphs when posting from an andriod phone.

When typing I hit the line return to start a new paragraph. It shows as I want on the screen, but when I submit the post, it all runs together.

I've posted this from my laptop, no problems.

Cheers Pete

I have a Samsung, Galaxy S6 run by Android and post a lot from the phone as well and have same problem. Must be an Android thing me thinks. Sometimes if I double space, it works. The bigger problem I have is the small keys on the phone and forever hitting next to what I want.

 I downloaded the app "Big Buttons" to overcome the small default Samsung keyboard.

Download and use a proper text editor to compose posts then cut and paste them into your target.

 Also, FYI, some apps may default the keyboard back to "samsung keyboard". If that happens...open BB app, tap Installation, tap "select input method", tap "Big Buttons Keyboard Standard" and all will be good again.

For some reason? when I use the camera the keyboard defaults to the "samsung keyboard". Don't now why...but the above procedure fixes the problem (until next time).

 Small keys or fat fingers Dougwe ? for me it's the second reason but I always use the first one as my excuse for typos even when using my puta keyboard........biggrinbiggrin

Thanks Mike for that info. I had a look at text editors & like every thing there is a big choice. Any recommendations for a good one. Cheers Pete
