Entering Text Using Swype
Swype™ is the default text input method that allows you to
enter a word by sliding your finger or stylus from letter to
letter, lifting your finger between words. Swype uses error
correcting algorithms and a language model to predict the
next word. Swype also includes a touch predictive text
system.
The on-screen keyboard options are different between the
Android keyboard and Swype on-screen input methods.
Note:
During its initial use, you may be prompted by a series of
Swype Connect set up screens. Follow the initial
on-screen set up instructions.
Enabling and Configuring Swype
If you configure another text input method (Samsung
keyboard) you must re-enable Swype before using the
Swype keyboard.
For more detailed information on configuring Swype settings,
see
When Swype is enabled there can also be normal keyboard
functionality.
