Using the Touch Screen
Your phone's touch screen lets you control actions through a
variety of touch gestures.
Touch
•
When you want to type using the onscreen keyboard, select
items, or press onscreen buttons, simply touch them with
your finger.
Press and Hold (long press)
•
To open the available options for an item (for example, a
message or link in a Web page), press and hold the item.
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.
Pinch
•
In some apps (such as Maps, Chrome, and Gallery), you can
zoom in and out by placing two fingers on the screen at once
and pinching them together (to zoom out) or spreading them
apart (to zoom in).
Rotate the phone to change from portrait to landscape.
