Here we take a look at our favourite keyboard typing tips and tricks, so you can quickly get up to speed on your Nokia Lumia 625.
Tip 1: You can’t change the size of the keyboard but if you want to view text you’ve written in a bigger font then this is possible. Nip into Settings>Ease of Access and you’ll find a slider that allows you to choose the size of font you can view the best.
Tip 2: The standard Windows Phone 8 keyboard offers a full QWERTY arrangements so firing off a message or long email is easy. If you need to add numbers then just hit the &123 key in the bottom left-hand corner and you’ll find the number pad as well as a host of every day symbols you’ll need in your messages.
Tip 3: You’ll find the Period key is conveniently placed to the side of the Spacebar but one great way to speed up your typing is with a double-tap. When you reach the end of a sentence you can tap the Spacebar twice and it will automatically add a Period, move the cursor on a space and even queue up the first letter of the word you type next to start with a capital letter.
Tip 4: If you can’t find the symbol you need, such as a € $ or even just < > , then all you need do is hit the arrow key on the left-hand side and more symbols will pop up, including foreign currency symbols, mathematical symbols and a few other useful ones.
Tip 5: It pays playing with the keyboard symbols and see what else is on offer, as many keys have extra functions, for example if you tap and hold down the £ sign you’ll find that € and $ as well as a number of other currencies are also supported.
Tip 6: If you’re sending a text message to someone but don’t have them in your Contacts list, you can easily add their phone number. Place your cursor in the To: line and tap the Numbers icon. Now, instead of a standard keyboard appearing you’ll get the dial pad, so you can easily add the number you want.
Tip 7: To quickly add a symbol without too much fuss, you don’t even need to take your finger off the screen: simply tap the numbers and symbol key and slide your finger to the symbol you need and when you let go it will automatically be added.
Tip 8: If you’re looking to refine the shortcuts or features of the keyboard in Windows Phone 8 then you can always nip into the Settings>Keyboard and then tap the language you are using.
