A system comprising: one or more processors; and program instructions for providing a user interface. Execution of the program instructions by the one or more processors causes the one or more processors to display a user interface comprising: an entry mechanism for entering an input comprising at least one character, symbol, numeral or punctuation mark; a typing pane configured to display the input entered via the entry mechanism; wherein, in response to selection of a prediction based on the input entered via the entry mechanism, the typing pane is configured to replace the input entered via the entry mechanism by the prediction; and an undo button, wherein in response to user selection of the undo button, the typing pane is configured to replace the selected prediction by the input entered via the entry mechanism.

System and method for inputting text into electronic devices

There is provided a system and method for generating predictions. The predictions are generated using a model configured to associate text with at least one action associated with at least one of a plurality of applications.

System and method for generating predictions

Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media are described for generating a virtual keyboard user interface that includes a popup area for selecting alternative characters. The user interface may include a plurality of keys generated on a display, with at least one key among the plurality of keys having a first character or action associated with the at least one key. The user interface may also include a popup area displayed so as to at least partially cover the at least one key, the popup area displaying one or more alternative characters or actions to the first character or action, and a visual indicator that instructs a user that the user may move the user's finger to the left or right of the at least one key, and without any vertical movement of the user's finger, to cause an alternative character or action within the popup area to be highlighted.
