Just go into the keyboard settings and set the default keyboard to Samsung. You should now have access to extra functions. These included all the Ctrl +y,z,x,c,v that are used in Windows there is also a clipboard viewer, Text functionality ,emojis and translation.
If you do not like it just switch back.
