Use the Input Panel to enter information in any program on your device. You can type using the soft keyboard or write using  

Letter Recognizer, Block Recognizer, or Transcriber. When using each Input Panel method, the characters appear as typed text on 

the screen.
To show or hide the Input Panel, tap the Input Panel button  . Tap the arrow next to the Input Panel button to choose a method for 

entering text.
When you use the Input Panel, your device anticipates the word you are typing or writing and displays it above the Input Panel. 

When you tap the displayed word, it is inserted into your text at the blinking cursor. As you continue to use your device, it learns to 

anticipate more and more words.

Tap here if 

this is the right 

word.

With the soft keyboard, you can tap letters to enter information. Letter Recognizer allows you to write letters using the stylus just as 

you would on paper. With Block Recognizer you can input character strokes with the stylus that are similar to those used on other 

devices. Using Transcriber you can write anywhere on the screen with the stylus, just as you would on paper. Write a sentence or 

more of information, then pause and let Transcriber change the written characters to typed characters.
