Swipe or slide
To swipe or slide means to quickly
drag your finger vertically or
horizontally across the screen.
Drag
To drag, press and hold your finger
with some pressure before you start
to move your finger. While
dragging, do not release your finger
until you have reached the target
position.
Flick
Flicking the screen is similar to
swiping, except that you need to
swipe your finger in light, quick
strokes. This finger gesture is
always in a vertical direction, such
as when flicking the contacts or
message list.
