Same issue here. I have a Galaxy S6. I've gone to setting and my box was already unchecked (as I'd done the first time because these things drive me nuts). Restarted app, restarted phone. Ever since the update I've been losing my mind and it looks like my ability to make it stop is gone! Help meeeeeee.

CScheid, we want you to keep your sanity and apologize for this inconvenience. You mentioned that you downloaded this application. Is that correct? When did this issue start happening? Did you recently update the software on your phone?

Thanks for the reply. I'm having trouble in Message+. I'm not actually sure how that came to be on my phone but it's the messaging that I've been using for months.... I see that it's version 6.2.2 but cannot find an update date. The issue happened about a year ago but I figured out how to turn it off. Then the program recently updated and now I can't turn it off. The checkbox for Smart Emoji is already unchecked (and had been since I turned it off last year) but after the update they started to reappear. I'm just not an emoji person so having anywhere from 2-10 of these highlighted words appear (and making editing more difficult) is a bit too much. I don't know how to go back to the basic messaging either, if this can't be turned off.

We want you to be able to enjoy your messaging experience on your device. That's the way I do almost all of my communication as well. Are you using the stock keyboard that came with a phone or are you using a 3rd party keyboard? Does this happen on the Samsung messaging application as well?

Thanks for your reply. I am using the stock keyboard (I double checked). And I've also just figured out how to go back to the stock message app (not sure how I ever switched away from this, up until now I thought that Message+ was the stock app!). Smart emojis do not happen there.

CScheid,

We want you to continue to use your Message+ application seamlessly. I know we will get this resolved for you. Some devices allow you to choose the manufacturer message application option. With the smart emoji's not popping up on the Samsung application, did you want to use this one or continue using the Message+ application?
