Swype Swype lets you enter words by tracing over the letters on the virtual QWERTY keyboard. Instead of tapping each key, use your finger to trace over each letter of a word. You can also tap letters to enter words. Swype provides next-letter prediction and regional error correction, which can compensate for tapping the wrong keys on the virtual QWERTY keyboards. Use Swype to Enter Text 1. From a screen where you can enter text drag down from the top of the screen to open the Notification panel, and then tap Select keyboard > Swype. 2. Swipe your finger continuously over the letters to form a word. As you swipe over letters, words matching your pattern display at the top of the Swype keyboard. To enter a word, lift your finger, or tap a word at the top of the keyboard. 3. While entering text, use these options:  If you make a mistake, tap Clear to delete a single character. Touch and hold Clear to delete an entire word or field.  By default, Swype starts with a capital at the beginning of text. Tap Up to start with a capital letter, or tap Up twice to enter all capitals.  Tap Symbol to switch to a symbols keyboard, and then tap keys to enter symbols.  Tap Voice input to switch to Google voice typing to enter text by speaking.
