Predictor

While writing in a text box, the Predictor can suggest words that:

 

  • Begin with letters you've typed e.g. typing 'wal' suggests words like 'walk' / 'walked' / 'walking'
  • Begin with the phonetic sounds of letters you've typed e.g. typing 'sor' suggests words like 'saw' / 'source' / 'sword' alongside words like 'sort' / 'sorry'
  • Often follow the previous word e.g. typing 'this' and then space suggests words like 'is' / 'was' / 'is a'

To turn the Predictor on/off tap  in the lower toolbar while writing.

 

Suggestions appear either in a floating window that follows the text cursor or above the on-screen keyboard.

 

Tap a suggestion to use it. To hear it spoken first, use Sound Shift.
