Entering Text Using Word Text Input

Word text input (iTAP) reduces the number of keystrokes needed to enter a word by predicting complete words as you type. While you enter letters, Word mode matches your keystrokes to words in its database and displays the most commonly used matching word. You can add your own words to this database.
