54 Using Your Phone
Predictive Input Mode (iTap)
iTap analyzes letters as they being inputted, making intelligent
predictions about the words you are attempting to enter, and speeding
up text entry.
How to use iTap
• Press once the alphanumeric key corresponding to the first letter of
the word you wish to enter without considering where that letter falls
in the sequence of characters available through that key. Then press
the key corresponding to the second letter, and so forth. The phone
will predict which word you wish to enter based on the set of keys you
have pressed. The predicted word will be shown in the lower left
portion of the screen. This word may change as you continue to press
other keys; therefore, before you have entered a complete word, you
do not need to worry if the displayed word does not yet match the
word you intend to enter.
• After pressing keys for a complete word, if the displayed word does
not match the one you intended to enter, press to view other
candidate words and locate the desired word.
• Once the correct word is displayed on the screen, press to enter this
word. A space will automatically be inserted after the word.
