Touch screen tips

Here are some tips on how to navigate on your phone.
Tap or touch – A single finger tap selects items, links, shortcuts and letters
on the on-screen keyboard.
Touch and hold – Touch and hold an item on the screen by touching it
and not lifting your finger until an action occurs. For example, to open a
contact's available options, touch and hold the contact in the Contacts list
until the context menu opens.
Drag – Touch and hold an item for a moment and then, without lifting
your finger, move your finger on the screen until you reach the target
position. You can drag items on the Home screen to reposition them.
Swipe or slide – To swipe or slide, quickly move your finger across the
surface of the screen, without pausing when you first touch it (so you
don't drag an item instead). For example, you can slide the screen up
or down to scroll through a list or browse through the different Home
screens by swiping from left to right (and vice versa).
Double-tap – Double-tap to zoom on a webpage or a map. For example,
quickly double-tap a section of a webpage to adjust that section to fit the
width of the screen. You can also double-tap to zoom in and out when
taking a picture (using the Camera), and when using Maps.
Pinch-to-Zoom – Use your index finger and thumb in a pinching or
spreading motion to zoom in or out when using the browser, Maps or
when browsing pictures.
Rotate the screen – From many applications and menus, the orientation
of the screen adjusts to the device's physical orientation.
