Screen Keyboard Types

Your phone offers three screen QWERTY keyboards:

Swype (default): Use the Swype keyboard to enter words by gliding your finger over the virtual QWERTY keyboard, lifting your finger between words. You can also touch individual keys or use Swype Word Prediction or Voice Recognition.

Android Keyboard: Use the Android Keyboard to enter text by touching keys on the screen. You can also use Android predictive text.

Samsung Keypad: Use the Samsung Keypad to enter text by touching keys on the screen. The Samsung Keypad, like the Android Keyboard, includes predictive text. You can also use XT9 predictive text and, with the screen in portait mode, you can use handwriting recognition or a 3x4 phone style keypad.

Changing the Keyboard Type

When entering text, you can select the type of virtual keyboard you wish to use.

Touch and hold on a text input field, then select a keyboard type:

Swype

Android keyboard

Samsung keypad

Using the Swype Keyboard

The Swype Keyboard offers a new way to enter text on touch screens. Instead of touching each key, use your finger to trace over each letter of a word. For each word, place your finger on the first letter and glide to the subsequent letters, lifting on the last letter.

This example shows how to enter the word “this”. Put your finger down on the “t”, and without lifting, glide it to the “h”, then to the “i” then over to the “s”.
