Use glide typing
You have two options for entering text: type one letter at a time (multi-touch typing) or slide your finger
through all the letters in a word using one continuous motion (glide typing). Start typing either way and
switch whenever you like.
When you're using glide typing, you can:
•
Type a word. Drag your finger over the letters in the word.
•
Enter apostrophes in common words. Drag through the letters and the apostrophe is automatically
inserted.
•
Add a space. There's no need to use the space bar. Just lift your finger and start the next word.
You can disable glide typing.
