Samsung is rolling out a new update for its stock keyboard app, bumping it up to version 5.9.12.10. While it’s not packed with flashy features, this update does bring a nice little quality-of-life improvement for those who use stickers. The new version should be available for Galaxy users worldwide over the next few days.

Samsung Keyboard update enhances your sticker experience

According to the official changelog, this Samsung Keyboard update focuses on organizing sticker categories within the keyboard. If you’re someone who frequently uses stickers to liven up your chats, you’ll probably appreciate the change. Samsung says the sticker categories have been streamlined and organized for easier access, which should make it faster to find the sticker you want without scrolling endlessly.

That’s it for now — no other major features or changes mentioned in this release. But it’s always good to see Samsung keeping even the small parts of One UI polished and user-friendly. If you regularly use stickers in your messages, this small tweak could actually make a noticeable difference, especially if you have a large collection or use third-party sticker packs.

It’s also worth noting that Samsung occasionally rolls out backend enhancements and under-the-hood fixes without detailing them in the changelog. So while this update officially focuses on sticker improvements, there may be additional optimizations that improve overall performance or stability. Let us know if you spot any other changes after updating!

The latest version (5.9.12.10) is rolling out to Galaxy users via the Galaxy Store. To update, open the Galaxy Store app, tap Menu > Updates, and look for Samsung Keyboard in the list. As always, updates like this may roll out gradually, so if you don’t see it yet, check back in a day or two. We have checked multiple Galaxy devices, and the update is available only on one of them.
