<p>The Android system shows an on-screen keyboard—known as a
|
|
<em>soft input method</em>—when a text field in your UI receives focus.
|
|
To provide the best user experience, you can specify characteristics
|
|
about the type of input you expect (such as
|
|
whether it's a phone number or email address) and how the input method should behave (such as
|
|
whether it performs auto-correct for spelling mistakes).</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>In addition to the on-screen input methods, Android also supports hardware keyboards, so it's
|
|
important that your app optimize its user experience for interaction that might occur
|
|
through an attached keyboard.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>These topics and more are discussed in the following lessons.</p>
