### Enabling Predictive Mode
Predictive Mode requires a language dictionary to be loaded in order provide word suggestions. You can toggle the enabled languages and load their dictionaries from: [Settings screen](#settings-screen) → Languages.

### Dictionary Tips
#### Loading a Dictionary
Once a dictionary is loaded, it will stay there until you use one of the "delete" options. This means you can enable and disable languages without reloading their dictionaries every time. Just do it once, only the first time.
It also means that if you need to start using language X, you can safely disable all other languages, load only dictionary X (and save time!), then re-enable all languages you used before.
Have in mind reloading a dictionary will reset the suggestion popularity to the factory defaults. However, there should be nothing to worry about. For the most part, you will see little to no difference in the suggestion order, unless you oftenly use uncommon words.
#### Deleting a Dictionary
If you have stopped using languages X or Y, you could disable them and also use "Delete Unselected", to free some storage space.
To delete everything, regardless of the selection, use "Delete All".
In all cases, your custom added words will be preserved and restored once you reload the respective dictionary.

#### Automatic Dictionary Loading
If you skip or forget to load a dictionary from the Settings screen, it will happen automatically later, when you go to an application where you can type, and switch to Predictive Mode. You will be prompted to wait until it completes and after that, you can start typing right away.

#### Added Words
The "Export" option allows you to export all added words, for all languages, including any added emoji, to a CSV file. Then, you can use the CSV file to make Traditional T9 better! Go to Github and share the words in a [new issue](https://github.com/sspanak/tt9/issues) or [pull request](https://github.com/sspanak/tt9/issues). After being reviewed and approved, they will be included in the next version.
Using "Delete", you can search for and delete misspelled words or others that you don't want in the dictionary.
### Compatibility Options & Troubleshooting
For a number of applications or devices, it is possible to enable special options, which will make Traditional T9 work better with them. You can find them in: Settings → Initial Setup, under the Compatibility section.

#### Key repeat protection
CAT S22 Flip and Qin F21 phones are known for their low quality keypads, which degrade quickly over time, and start registering multiple clicks for a single key press. You may notice this when typing or navigating the phone menus.
For CAT phones the recommended setting is 75-100 ms. For Qin F21, try with 20-30 ms. If you are still experiencing the issue, increase the value a bit, but generally try to keep it as low as possible.
For CAT phones the recommended setting is 50-75 ms. For Qin F21, try with 20-30 ms. If you are still experiencing the issue, increase the value a bit, but generally try to keep it as low as possible.
_**Note:** The higher value you set, the slower you will have to type. TT9 will ignore very quick key presses._
