Features
Your phone offers new features for using gestures to interact with your phone.
Motions and Gestures
Control your phone by making specific gestures with your hand above the phone's screen.
●
Air browse: Scroll through pages, or move to the previous or next item, by moving your hand up
and down, or left and right, over the screen.
●
Direct call: Call the contact whose recent call log, message, or contact details are displayed by
lifting the phone to your ear.
●
Smart alert: Phone vibrates to alert you to missed calls and notifications that occurred since the
last time you picked up your phone.
●
Mute/pause: Mutes incoming calls and pause playback by turning the phone screen-side down,
or by covering the screen with your hand. You can also use Smart pause, to have the phone
pause video playback when you look away from the screen.
●
Palm swipe to capture: Creates a copy of the current screen by swiping the side of your hand
across the screen, from left to right or right to left. The screen shot is saved to the clipboard, and
to the Screenshots folder.
