Hi everyone! Does anyone know how to type a colon and semicolon? Thanks in advance!
 
Hit the ".?123" button, to get numbers and some punctuation. Hit the "#+=” to get more symbols. Press and hold any key to get further options (when available).
 
The easiest and, by far, fastest way to access the ":" and the ";" is to press and hold the <.?123> key and then swipe your finger to the key containing the sign you want. On release the keyboard automatically returns to the alphabetic mode.

Steffen,

Just tried your tip!

Works great!

Thanks for sharing. You earned some street cred with me.
 
There are evev a few optional characters in the alphabetic mode, using the press-hold-swipe method. This has been tipped on elsewhere in the forum, but I see no real harm done in duplicating the info here... ;)

Otherwise, the TIPS & TRICKS-thread is to recommend warmly!
