    I search and didn't find that anyone has posted this keyboard trick that I just discovered.

    We all know about the swipe right to left with one finger to delete a word. If you swipe right to left with two fingers it will delete two words and with three fingers three words. Four fingers and you run out of keyboard real estate for swiping it seems so three is the most words you can delete in one swipe.

    My favorite is whenever you need a symbol or number, instead of tapping the ?123 button on the bottom left, just slide from that key to the symbol you need. Try it out.

    Actually it was discovered before and there was a thread on it. You didn't search hard enough

    Edit: from LordCrankyPant's post

    Here you go. Searched "two finger swipe delete" on CB and this was the second item in the search. See post #3.

    This thread does not deserve the attention it has gotten. OP just recycles an old discovered trick and reposts it as if it was newly discovered

    This works for the shift key as well for capitalizing letters.

    I like this for using two thumbs to delete two words. Not sure if three is any easier as it forces you to take your hands off the phone.

    I just discovered of you hold down the caps. button and the the delete button, you toggle between deleting forward or backward (from the cursor)

    To capitalize letters, hold press on the key until you see the capital (usually one second)

    If you're not happy with your relationship, get out and be happy rather than try to drown everyone else in your misery.

    I cant, It was given to me for free through work... I come here waiting for news on the release of useful apps and tricks and tips... but lately, I have been spending less and less time on this site.. So many issues with this phone, they should have delayed it another year.

    If you don't mind can you tell us what issues are you on now so we can at least discuss it, rather than moaning all over the forum. That wouldn't solve anything.

    And for double words deleting, you don't really have to move all your fingers to another awkward position, just swipe your both thumbs to the left, not awkward at all.
