Do you find yourself typing the same thing over and over again? Like your email address, or maybe a phrase that you use often.

Theses items can be assigned to just a few digits which when typed, will be replaced with the full text.

Tip. Create a keyboard shortcut so that you only have to type a couple of characters and the system will offer to fill in the full text.

Example. I have created a shortcut for my mailing address. If I type “hh” , the system prompts me with “Headed Home” in the same place where it normally displays a single word suggestion.  This comes in handy when I want to let my wife know I’m headed that way.

HowTo Procedure. Go to Settings –> General –> Keyboard –> Text Replacement
  Shortcut  – enter the short code you will use to call up the text.  ( “hh” in my example )
Phrase –  enter the phrase you want to replace the short code with.  (“Headed Home”  in my example )
Settings

Now, the next type you enter the characters in the “Short Code”, your device with replace it with the full phrase.  This works in every application that I have found so far.

Enjoy!!!
