If you press it or hold it, you can cycle through symbols including \u201c@\u201d. ([support.simplisafe.com](https://support.simplisafe.com/en_GB/articles/keypad/how-to-type-using-the-keypad/666350460101a527eccd647c?utm_source=openai))\n\n2. **Long-press the \u201c*\u201d (star) key or \u201c#\u201d key:**  \n   On many phones and in many T9 apps, long-pressing the star or hash key will bring up the symbols menu. From there, you can select \u201c@\u201d. ([support.sunbeamwireless.com](https://support.sunbeamwireless.com/support/solutions/articles/154000080503-t9-input?utm_source=openai))\n\n3. **Switch to symbol mode (123 or Sym):**  \n   Sometimes you have a mode-toggle key (often \u201c#\u201d) that switches from letters to \u201c123\u201d or symbol mode. Once in that mode, the \u201c@\u201d should appear as one of the options. ([att.com](https://www.att.com/device-support/article/wireless/KM1283419/null/Support?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\nIf you tell me what phone or T9 app you\u2019re using (e.g. CAT S22, Samsung flip-phone, or a specific keyboard app), I can give exact steps for that model."
