Entering Text
You can use the onscreen keyboard to enter text messages, contact information, notes,

1 Tap a text field, such as in a note or new contact, to bring up the keyboard.
2 Tap keys on the keyboard.
As you type, each letter appears above your thumb or finger. If you touch the wrong
key, you can slide your finger to the correct key while maintaining contact with the
screen. The letter is not entered until you release your finger from the key.
