Use Gestures: Tap, Swipe, Drag, Flick, Pinch

Gestures are an important, basic part of your phone. They're easy to learn, and they make
working with the phone fast. You make most gestures with one finger. For a few, you need
two. Do not use your fingernail. Make gestures with the tip of your finger. Don't bear down.
To see short animations illustrating how to do gestures, go to palm.com/support or tap Clips
in Help on your phone.
You make gestures in two areas on your phone: the touchscreen and the gesture area. The
gesture area is the black area extending from the bottom of the screen to halfway down the
Center button.

You also need to know about the Center button. Press the Center button to do the following:
When you're working in an application, press Center to see Card view. Card view shows
you all the applications that are currently open, displayed as a series of cards (small active
windows).
When you're in Card view, press Center to maximize the app in the center of the view.
