Thanks for the reply Samsung peeps!
What I meant is the keyboard is not optimized for scrolling through social media or apps for reading.
I tried Samsung Notes( both editing and read mode), Samsung MembersApp, FB, FB messenger, Instagram, Youtube, Medscape, MIMS

The down button does work, but unlike on a normal keyboard in a pc, it does not scroll the page. The buttons even has prints of 👆PgUp, 👇PgDn, <Home, >End

I tried pressing Cmd, Fn, Alt, Crtl, Shift button with the arrow keys, but it still does not scroll the page

I also tried it in DexMode, but still same results.

But it does work on Google Chrome and Samsung Internet.

I guess the keyboard arrow keys is not optimized for most apps. I hope Samsung will have an update for this. Thanks!

PS:
1 I also hope it can have a clipboard button, or is there a shortcut for it?

2 Is there really no Samsung Benefits for the S8 tab series? I just got mine.
Thanks again!

3 I can't/(have difficulty) reply on my on posts, it says server error

yup, I really like Samsung products, and it's innovations. I really hope they can fix these kind of stuff that affects the user experience really soon.

One more thing that I find that falls short with the Tab S8+ is they sold most of it with the Keyboard, they are promoting it to be used in landscape orientation, but I found that there are still a lot of apps not optimized in landscape mode, even popular ones. Good thing you can use Multi window to make the app be used better. The Labs auto rotate helps, but in Facebook, the pictures and contents are still too big to view from the screen. In Instagram, it works with the App Aspect ratio to so that content fits the screen, but you have to scroll it from the middle of the screen, you can't scroll from the sides or use the keyboard for scrolling.
Multi window is the current solution I use for that problem.
I hope we can get updates soon for these stuff. Thanks for hearing us out.
