Nebo isn't that familiar with custom words, but you will need to decide if the word you want to use is a one-off custom word or a word you intend to use regularly. If you're a Nebo user and intend to use the word multiple times, it might be worth entering it into the user dictionary.*
To ensure accurate conversion of custom words in Nebo, follow these recommendations:
Proper nouns and invented words (e.g., Pivawu, craaaazy)
- Write characters neatly without mixing cursive and print scripts.
- If Nebo suggests an incorrect word, tap for suggestions where your custom word should be available.
- If your custom word is not in the suggestions, rewrite it with a space after each character. Freeze each character's typeset format by tapping it in the conversion preview or suggestions list.
- Once each character appears correctly, remove all spaces using a join gesture.
- File names, pseudonyms, and product names:
File names, pseudonyms, and product names (e.g., File-1200, User75i, iPad2018)
- Write characters neatly without mixing cursive and print scripts.
- If Nebo suggests an incorrect word, rewrite it by creating distinct, consistent blocks with added space. Browse suggestions to find the correct format for each block.
- Once each block appears correctly, remove all spaces using a join gesture.
Complex passwords (e.g., Az3#4PI!)
- Write characters neatly without mixing cursive and print scripts. Add a space after each character.
- Freeze each character's typeset format by tapping it in the conversion preview or suggestions list, considering the case (upper or lower).
- Once each character appears correctly, remove all spaces using a join gesture.
When your custom word is written correctly, you can convert it by double-tapping or waiting until you finish writing the block.
These recommendations will ensure the accurate conversion of your custom words in Nebo.
