Unity3D Input.getAxis() slowly dies instead of returning 0

I'm using Input.GetAxis() in Unity3D with keyboard (WASD), I printed out it's values in the FixedUpade() function, and when I release a button it returns values like: 1.0f, 0.7f, 0.4f, 0.0f, instead of instant 0.0f.

Is there a way to achieve instant 0.0f on releasing the button? (changing the value to 0 when it's smaller than 1 is not an option)

If you want the range of values that GetAxis() provides (smooth, graduated movement) but want the input value to return to zero immediately when the player releases the button/key (e.g. to halt animations), you can use GetAxisRaw() in your logic like so:

float inputX = 0;
    
// reset X after player has stopped pressing
if (Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal") != 0)
    inputX = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");

GetAxis() will have smoothing applied to its values. If you want to use unfiltered data (0 or +/-1 for keyboards) use GetAxisRaw() instead.
