Using the Onscreen Keyboard
You enter text, numbers, and symbols using the onscreen keyboard. Some
applications open the keyboard automatically. In others, you tap an input
field where you want to enter text to open the keyboard.
To enter text, tap the keys on the keyboard to type.
NOTE:
 Tap and hold a vowel or the C, N, or S key to open a small window
where you can tap an accented vowel or other alternate letter.
 If you’ve used the Android Keyboard settings to make more than one
language available, you can slide left or right on the Space key to cycle
to the previous or next language. (For settings information, see
“Language and Keyboard Settings” in Chapter 9.)
To enter numbers or symbols, tap the Symbols key to switch to the
numbers and symbols keyboard. Tap the Alt key on the symbols keyboard to
view additional symbols; press it again to switch back. Tap and hold a key to
open a window of additional symbols.
