➊ Touch the „ key, but don’t lift your finger. The punctuation layout
appears.
➋ Slide your finger onto the period or comma key, and release. The
ABC layout returns automatically. You’ve typed a period or a comma with
one finger touch instead of three.
If you’re a two-thumbed typist, you can also hit the „ key with your left thumb,
and then tap the punctuation key with your right. It even works on the = subpunctuation
layout, although you’ll probably visit that screen less often.
In fact, you can type any of the punctuation symbols the same way. This technique
makes a huge difference in the usability of the keyboard.
This same trick saves you a finger-press when capitalizing words, too. You can put
your finger down on the L key and slide directly onto the letter you want to type
in its uppercase version. Or, if you’re a two-handed iPhone typist, you can work the
Shift key like the one on your computer: Hold it down with your left thumb, type a
letter with your right, and then release both.
