Predictive text or auto correction

The Android keyboard can provide predictive text input. As you tap the letters of a word, a selection of words are displayed that continue the sequence of letters tapped, or are a close match allowing for errors. The word list changes after every key press. If the word you need is displayed, you can tap on it to insert it into your text.

To turn predictive text on or off with the Android keyboard, tap the Input options key, and then Android keyboard settings. Tap Auto correction or Show correction suggestions and select one of the options.

Changing the keyboard

To use a different keyboard type, tap the Keyboard status icon; this will open a menu listing the text input methods available on your tablet. Tap your preferred input method.

Typically three options are available: two types of Android Keyboard (keyboard and voice) and XT9 Text Input.

XT9 Text Input

The XT9 keyboard provides an alternative to the standard Android keyboard.

Tap the ?123 button to see numbers and special characters, and then tap the ALT key to see more options. Tap and hold a key to select alternative characters (if available), such as letters with accents.

Additional keys vary depending on the type of text you enter. E.g. a key to add a smiley is available when typing a text message. Like other keys, tap and hold to see if additional options are available.

Text assistance

The standard XT9 keyboard has various features that assist you to enter correct text. To use these features, tap the Keyboard status icon; this will open a menu
