Personalising the Xperia keyboard
When entering text using the on-screen keyboard or the Phonepad, you can access a
keyboard settings and other text input settings that help you set options for writing
languages, text prediction, automatic spacing and quick full stops. For example, you
can decide how word options are presented and how words get corrected as you
type. And you can get your message data scanned so that word predictions fit your
writing style. You can also set the text input application to remember new words that
you write.
