To place your cursor where you
want it
If you want to place your cursor in the middle
of some text you've already written, tap and
hold the screen near the text you want to
change until a cursor appears, then drag your
finger to move the cursor exactly where you
want it.
If you want to select an entire word, tap
the word.
To use text suggestions and automatic
corrections
When you start typing, you'll notice that
your phone suggests words based on the
letters you've typed so far. You can tap the
suggestion to add it to your message, or keep
typing until you see the one you want. If a
suggested word is bold, your phone will use
it to replace the typed word automatically.
It'll also automatically add apostrophes to
contractions (for example, "dont" will be
replaced with "don't") and accents where
appropriate.
If it's not bold, you can tap the suggested
word to replace the one you've typed. Flick
left to see more options.
If you realize later that you mistyped
something, it's not too late. Tap that word and
your phone will bring back some suggestions
for you.
