Entering Text Using Swype Swype™ is the default text input method that allows you to enter a word by sliding your finger or stylus from letter to letter, lifting your finger between words. SWYPE uses error correcting algorithms and a language model to predict the next word. SWYPE also includes a touch predictive text system. The on-screen keyboard options are different between the Android keyboard and Swype on-screen input methods. Enabling and Configuring SWYPE If you configure another text input method (Samsung keypad) you must re-enable SWYPE before using the SWYPE keyboard. When SWYPE is enabled there can also be normal keyboard functionality. 1. From the Home screen, press and then tap Settings ➔ Language and input. 2. Tap Default ➔ Swype. Note: During its initial use, you may be prompted by a series of Swype Connect set up screens. Follow the initial on-screen set up instructions. 79 Swype Settings To configure Swype settings: 1.
