Keyboard to reply messages

I know that Venu 3 har a keyboard to reply to messages (if you have an Android Phone. Does someone who has bought a Fenix 8 know if there is a keyboard onboard to reply to messages. Or do you only have to choose from preinstalled replies or maybe Voice replies

I come from a Venu and there is no possibility to open a keyboard on the fenix 8 to reply to messages, as it is on the Venu. There are only the handful of standard replies. I deeply miss that keyboard…

I think, this is high time that we really went to the bottom of this: This shouldn't be taken as if I didn't like the product or anything like that, I love this watch. Yet, I will ask a genuine question…

No problem, had the same issue right after they added to Beta changelog the ability to configure the layout, been searching whole menu for this and could not find so I asked in beta forum about this and somebody posted where the menu is. Terrible UX :)

I installed the latest software update of the Fēnix 8 and tried the various keyboards. The qwerty actually has text prediction, and it's convenient, but the keyboard on the 43mm watch is really small and hard to use. I would like to have the T9 in Italian, but I do not think it will work.

There is also the software bug, already found on Venu 3 that I own, namely that it is not possible to respond with the keyboard to the chats that have in the name of the emojis. I hope they solve.
