Use the words above the keyboard
Finish a word with one tap instead of eight letters.
The strip above the keys offers words the phone thinks you want next. Tapping one types the whole word.
Nothing goes in until you tap. Ignored, the row changes with every letter.
Key points
- The strip above the keys offers words you can tap instead of typing
- Nothing from it is used until you tap it
What to remember
- The strip waits. It never types by itself.
- Suggestions wait. Autocorrect acts.
Try this
Open a message on your own device, type three letters, and read the words that appear. Tap one.
