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. For more information regarding Swype settings, see "Swype Settings" on page 261. 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. Swype Text Entry Tips You can access the SwypeTips application and watch a video or tutorial on using Swype. You can also use the following Swype text entry tips. • Create a squiggle (like an S shape) to create a double letter (such as pp in apple). • Touch and hold a key to view the punctuation menu then make a selection. • Move your finger or stylus over the apostrophe to enter contractions. • Double-touch on the word you want to change to correct a misspelled word, then touch the delete key to erase one character. Touch and hold the delete key to erase an entire word. 81
