Getting Around on Your Device
Move Around Your Device's Menus and Screens
Tap: When you want to type using the onscreen
keyboard, select items such as application and
settings icons, or press onscreen buttons, simply
tap them with your finger. A light touch works best.
Press and hold: To display the available options for
an item simply press and hold the item.
Flick: Move your finger in lighter, quicker strokes
than swiping. This finger gesture is always used in
a vertical motion, such as when flicking through
contacts or a message list.
Swipe or slide: Quickly drag your finger vertically
or horizontally across the screen.
Drag: Press and hold your finger with some pressure
before you start to move it. Do not release your finger
until you have reached the target position.
Rotate: Activate the auto-rotate feature to
automatically change the screen orientation from
portrait to landscape by turning the
device sideways.
Swype: This unique feature allows you to enter a
word by sliding a finger from letter to letter, lifting
only between words. See the Basics Guide in the
box, and the User Guide online for instructions on
using this text input method.
