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.
Press and hold the Swype key to access settings, features,
updates, preferences, and help.
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.
