Using Gestures to Control Your NOOK

Your NOOK puts great reading material right at your fingertips. To read that material, to share it, to rate it, and so
on, you'll use your fingers in different ways.
Your NOOK recognizes these different gestures:
•

Tap

•

Double tap

• Press and hold
• Swipe
• Scroll
Tap
A tap on the screen is a quick touch of your fingertip. It's the same gesture you use when you tap a key on a com-
puter keyboard.
Tapping on an icon in the Quick Nav Bar.
Double Tap
Tapping twice quickly on the screen is a useful short-cut for many features.
In the Library or the Shop, double-tapping on the cover of a book or periodical opens a window with details about
the item.
