• PREDICTIVE TEXT
Predictive text input allows you to write messages much faster than the standard
text method. With predictive text input, you only need to press each number key
once for each letter. Your phone uses a built-in dictionary to predict or guess what
you are writing. You can also add new words to the dictionary.
