Screen QWERTY Keyboards

Touching the keyboard on the screen enters letters, punctuation, numbers, and other characters into text entry fields or applications. Access a screen keyboard by touching any text entry field.

The screen QWERTY keyboards appear at the bottom of the screen. By default, when you rotate the phone, the screen orientation updates to keep the keyboard at the bottom of the screen.

Screen Keyboard Types

Your phone offers three on-screen QWERTY keyboards:

Samsung Keypad (default): Use the Samsung Keypad to enter text by touching keys on the screen. You can also use XT9 predictive text to match the first few letters you type with words in a dictionary, then you can select a finished word from a list.

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