How do I type capital words on my Samsung Galaxy J7

[shilbert]

I recently got a Samsung Galaxy J7 for Virgin Mobile (yes it's a J7 not a S7) which has the equivalent of Swype for typing but I don't think it's called Swype. Anyway on my old phone when I wanted a word to be in caps I would swipe up on the screen and back down again and whatever word I was typing would be in caps. This is not the case with the J7. If I hit the 'Shift' (up arrow) key then swipe my word it won't be in caps. I have to hit 'Shift' then manually type out the word. Am I doing something wrong or is this just how it works on this phone?

If you tap the button once, the first letter will be capital. If you double tap it, everything will be until you tap it again...

Like I explained in my original post, that doesn't work.
