Dear Software Experts,

You will be familiar at least with the basic methods of entering text faster than 'key-by-key' in Android. I'm talking about the swiping and the auto-correcting methods.

While I'm not so sure about the swiping (and I don't know shorthand either), I do know that if I had the same auto-correction I have when I type in Android when I type with a keyboard, it would open up doors to a substantially increased wpm.

Very best/
Mark

I haven't gotten into it yet, but I see this is more or less exactly what I was looking for. It had to be out there. Thanks a lot Michael!
