Finger gestures

Tap When you want to type using the keyboard, select items
onscreen such as application and settings icons, or press
onscreen buttons, simply tap them with your finger.
Press and To open the available options for an item (for example, a
hold contact or link in a web page), simply press and hold the item.
Swipe or To swipe or slide means to quickly drag your finger vertically
slide or horizontally across the screen.
Drag Press and hold your finger with some pressure before you
start to drag. 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, quicker strokes. This finger
gesture is always in a vertical direction, such as when flicking
the contacts or message list.
Rotate For most screens, you can automatically change the screen
orientation from portrait to landscape by turning HTC
Rezound with Beats Audio sideways. When entering text, you
can turn HTC Rezound with Beats Audio sideways to bring up
a bigger keyboard.
Pinch In some apps, like Gallery or the web browser, you can "pinch"
the screen using two fingers (for example, thumb and index
finger) to zoom in or zoom out when viewing a picture or a
web page.
