Whenever there is a new technology that has an impact on our everyday lives, we need to learn to use it. To the younger generation, this can be a walk in the park. But to older generation, that can be hard and even time consuming. Such as the apple iphone keyboard.

When you first buy Apple iphone, you have probably spent a lot of hours getting used to the controls and applications that iphone contains.

When you possess such a unique feature like the touch screen keyboard, there are 3 tips and tricks you need to be familiar with in order to keep sending messages. By following them, you should be able to type faster and with lesser or no errors.

1. Typing Letters Into Iphone

The first of those tips and tricks involve typing the letters into the iphone. When keying in a letter, you tap on it. Unlike mobile phones, the letter will not appear on the screen until you lift your finger off it.

But if you pressed the wrong key, you can simply amend the error by sliding your finger to the right letter.

That way when you found the right letter or number, you can simply lift your finger and the letter will appear on the screen. This helps to correct most of the errors save you tremendous amount of time.

2. Auto-Correction Feature

The second tip is the auto-correction feature within the keyboard. Most users have discovered that to be a great way to keep your writing clear and easy. But, it is very simple to accept a word that you never want to type.

If you wish to avoid such confusions, you definitely need to learn to accept and reject a suggested word. When you want to accept a word, you either tap return, space or punctuation mark.

But if you wish to reject a suggested word, simply type the word you want for it to appear.

Please note that when writing a full word twice at different times, you should tap on it twice as well. The iphone will actually add the word to its dictionary.

It takes about 2 weeks to store all of your most used words into the dictionary. But once you have finished typing on your iphone, everything will fall into place automatically.

3. Capitalization Of Words

The final tip involves capitalization of words. If you are thinking of capitalizing the first letter of a word, just tap the shift key before the letter you want capitalized.

But what happens if you want to capitalize the entire word?

Very simple. Just go to settings before tapping general after that tap keyboard. From there you will tap Enable Caps Lock and double tap the shift key.

Once the button lights up in illuminating blue, you should be able to type in all caps.
