Screen QWERTY Keyboards
Touching the keyboard on the screen enters letters, punctuation,
numbers, and other characters into text entry fields or
applications. Access a screen keyboard by touching any text
entry field.
The screen QWERTY keyboards appear at the bottom of the
screen. By default, when you rotate the phone, the screen
orientation updates to keep the keyboard at the bottom of the
screen.
Screen Keyboard Types
Your phone offers three on-screen QWERTY keyboards:
•
Samsung Keypad (default): Use the Samsung Keypad to enter text by
touching keys on the screen. You can also use XT9 predictive text to
match the first few letters you type with words in a dictionary, then
you can select a finished word from a list.
•
Swype: Use the Swype keyboard to enter words by gliding your finger
over the on-screen QWERTY keyboard, lifting your finger between
words. You can also touch individual keys or use Swype Word
Prediction or Voice Recognition.
