Text assistance The Android keyboard has various features that assist you to enter correct text. Tap Menu > Settings > Language & keyboard > Android keyboard. From here you can enable or disable the following: Function Quick fixes Show suggestions Auto-complete Description Corrects commonly typed mistakes. Shows suggested words while you are typing. Inserts the suggested word whenever you tap space or a punctuation mark. Swype Swype is a fast way to enter text. It allows you to type with one continuous motion across the screen keyboard; you create a word by drawing through letters. Put your finger on the first letter of the word and draw a path from letter to letter, lifting up only after the last letter. Swype will insert spaces where necessary. Swype will usually add a double letter in a word when needed, but you can help Swype recognize you want a double letter by scribbling slightly or making a loop on the letter. For example, to get the "ll" in "hello", scribble (or make a loop) on the "l" key. When there are multiple suggestions for the word you want to enter, Swype displays a Word Choice List. To accept the default word in the Word Choice List, just keep Swyping. Otherwise, scroll through the list by dragging your finger, and tap the word you want. Tap the Swype key to turn the ability to draw words on or off. Press and hold the Swype key to access settings, help, and to change input methods. Tap the +!= button to see numbers and special characters; tap the page (shift) key to see even more. Additional keys vary depending on the type of text you enter, e.g. a key to add a smiley is available when typing a text message. Like other keys, tap and hold for additional options.
