10. Something to also be aware of is what I call 'swipe typing' don't know the actual name of it

I believe most Android devices support it and it's on by default. It's handy once you get used to it, IMHO, but if you don't know it's there and 'on' you may see some odd behavior while 'typing', esp. if you don't lift your finger well off the screen between each letter.

The way it works is you create whole words simply by dragging your finger from letter to letter without removing your finger from the screen. So like plop your finger on the 'T', then w/o removing it from the screen, quickly slide it to 'H' and then over to 'E', and release finger from the screen. If you did it 'right' (it can take some practice and its not uncommon for the device to misinterpret, esp. with longer words), you should get the word 'The' + a space, ready for the next word. Hitting delete once before starting the next word should delete the whole word it just created, which is handy.

To repeat a letter twice like the word 'Thee', you just kinda swipe up/down real fast over the same letter.
