Entering Text Using Swype
Swype™ is the default touchscreen input method. Swype is a
unique text input method that allows a user to enter a word by
sliding a finger from letter to letter, lifting only between words. It
uses error-correcting algorithms and a language model to guess
the word intended. It also includes a tapping predictive text
system in the same interface.
To enter text, you can alternate between Swype and Android
Keyboard input methods. The onscreen keyboard options are
different between Swype and the Android keyboard.
For information about using the Android Keyboard input method,
see “Entering Text Using the Android Keyboard” on page 36.
