HI. I suspect the reason you can't find it is that your using the rota when not in a text edit area, thus the typing mode option isn't visible. So, take yourself for example to the body of a text message, then use the rota, and eventually you'll see typing mode. Swipe down with 1 finger to touch

Hi Paul, As to your question on Emergency Calls, I believe the emergency calls button brings up the dial pad to enable you to call 999 or 911 in the USA. I imagine it doesn't allow you to access any other apps or call any other numbers as your phone will still be effectively securely locked.
