Address Entry

Address entry is a step-by-step process in which you enter the state or ZIP code, city, and house number/street name in separate screens. As you type each entry, matches in the database appear on a pick list below. Tapping an item on the list enters it, then you tap Next to confirm and move to the next screen.
