Put your finger on the first letter of the word and draw
a path from letter to letter, lifting up only after the last
letter. Swype will insert spaces where necessary.
Swype will usually add a double letter in a word when
needed, but you can help Swype recognize you want
a double letter by scribbling slightly or making a loop
on the letter. For example, to get the "ll" in "hello",
scribble (or make a loop) on the "l" key.
When there are multiple suggestions for the word
you want to enter, Swype displays a Word Choice
List. To accept the default word in the Word Choice
List, just keep Swyping. Otherwise, scroll through the
list by dragging your finger, and tap the word you
want.
Press and hold the Swype key to access settings, features, updates,
preferences, and help.
Tap the +!= button to see numbers and special characters; tap the page
(shift) key to see even more.
Additional keys vary depending on the type of text you enter, e.g. a key to add a
smiley is available when typing a text message. Like other keys, tap and hold for
additional options.
To change the input method, open the Notification area (see "Status and
notification area" on page 16.) and tap Choose input method.
