Alphanumeric

Type letters and words the way you used to text on an old phone keypad — no extra hardware, just your thumb.

When to use it: entering a name, a word, or any free text into your app.

How it works: each numbered button holds a small group of letters. Tap to step through them — one tap for the first letter, two for the second, three for the third — like old-school phone texting. Hold on your final press to capitalize that letter; you’ll feel a single click when the capital registers. One more tap past the last letter sends the button’s number.

What you do

Count the taps to the letter you want:

• h → Button 3, tap twice (g, then h)
• H → Button 3, tap once, then hold on the second press
• 9 → Button 9, tap three times (y, z, then 9)

Pause before the next letter — moving on commits the one you just spelled.
