Swype

Swype lets you enter words by tracing over the letters on the virtual QWERTY keyboard. Instead of touching each key, use your finger to trace over each letter of a word. You can also touch letters to enter words.

Swype provides next-letter prediction and regional error correction, which can compensate for touching the wrong keys on the virtual QWERTY keyboards.

2.Swipe your finger continuously over the letters to form a word. As you swipe over letters, words matching your pattern display at the top of the Swype keyboard. To enter a word, lift your finger, or touch a word at the top of the keyboard.

3.While entering text, use these options:

If you make a mistake, touch Configure Swype to delete a single character. Touch and hold Editing Text to delete an entire word or field.

By default, Swype starts with a capital at the beginning of text. Touch Manual background to start with a capital letter, or touch Manual background twice to enter all capitals.

Touch Manual background to switch to a symbols keyboard, and then touch keys to enter symbols.
