You should also note that:

Except for passwords and numerical fields, the first character of the entry field or the first character
after a period is a capital letter by default; the following characters are automatically typed as small
letters.

When your keyboard is in capital or small letters typing mode, you can type a number by holding
down the corresponding key.
This way, most of the time, you can type your texts while staying on the small letters typing mode. Indeed,
the first letter of each sentence will automatically be in upper case and you can type numbers when you
need them without changing the typing mode.

Voice recognition entry: best practices for best results
If you have a 3G/4 G or Wi-Fi internet connection, launch the voice recognition from any text input field by
pressing the Menu key (above OK).
Important: when you use the voice recognition, you must be particularly careful:

Not to start talking before the beep noise and vibration

To place the microphone near your mouth (a few inches away), as if you were calling someone for
example

To remain completely silent before you start talking and enunciate the words very clearly from the
beginning: for example you must avoid starting your sentence with "Um".

To dictate in one go without pausing for too long as the voice recognition will stop as soon as there
is a blank.

When you have finished dictating, stay quiet for a moment until your phone vibrates to let you
know your text has been taken into account.
The phone doesn't insert the voice recognition results immediately but redirects you to a validation screen
(or cancellation) for the text you entered, allowing you to choose between several potential propositions.
Press the Back key to return to the text input field without inserting the vocal recognition results, or press
"OK" to insert the chosen proposition in your text. The text will then be inserted at the cursor's current
emplacement and the enunciation level will be on "word". You can then easily re-read the inserted text
word by word using the arrow keys.
