Touch sensitivity button missing on tab a9

LadyCyn — Fri, 23 Feb 2024 10:39:30 GMT

Is this normal? I've put a screen protector on my new tab A9 and wanted to increase the sensitivity and there is no button for it. There is only the "Accidental touch protection". Could anyone who has this tablet check if they have the Touch sensitivity button?

Try this:

tap settings.
Tap Language and Input.
Scroll to the very bottom of these settings and tap pointer speed.
I have seen sevreal default speeds, none over %50. Increase the slider to make the touch screen more sensitive and easier to tab. ...
Tap OK and then experiment with the results.

P.S. This is solution by @Badger99

My Tab S9 is opposite to you. I have Touch Sensitivity setting but no Accidental Touch setting. I had a quick search on the web and the only instance was a couple of months ago. The user contacted Samsung about the missing setting and was advised to return the tablet for repair. They (Samsung) were supposed to get back to him with details but they never did.

Yes I've seen that one. I've asked support and did a report. Hopefully they can sort it out with the next update🤞

Not in mu use with all the updates. I returned the tablet as that issue just became too annoying.

Really like the tablet and got it super cheap but if you cannot touch a touch screen and have react correctly then it goes.

Same here on my tab s9 FE. Try deactivating Dex. Worked for me.

Others have reported a grounding issue is the problem. Put headphones in or touch headphones input to test.

Very2 much. I've had it for almost a month. Loving everything. It's fast, the screen is nice, the spen is superb. I can use it for wa call, meeting, working, entertainment, everything. Super worth it. I just wish Samsung had released an 8 inch tab with same spec and spen. Overall really really love the s9 fe.

Wow. I just noticed this community conversation was going on back in Feb 2024. I just purchased a Galaxy Tab A9 3 wks ago in 2023 and I installed screen protection which has diminished the touch sensitivity. Touch sensitivity setting does not exist under DISPLAY on my tablet and neither does your instruction #3 (POINTER SPEED). I don't know what's going on with this operating system software. I didn't just purchase my Tab A9 off any vendor on the internet. I got it in Walmart.

2025 and they still churn out touch screen that you can't control touch on

On Samsung need to go up a price point to get it.

No touch settings for sensitivity on the iPad (any of them) I just got as well.
