selection or to answer an on-screen question), or touch letters and
numbers to type.

Touch and hold

Touch and hold an item on the screen by touching it and

not lifting your finger until an action occurs. For example, to open a
Context menu for editing a contact, touch and hold a contact entry until
the menu pops up.

Drag

Touch and hold an item for a moment and then, without lifting your

finger, move your finger on the screen until you reach the target position.
For example, you can drag items on the Home screen to reposition them.

Swipe, slide, or flick

Move your finger quickly across the surface of the

screen, without pausing when you first touch it (so you don’t drag an item
instead). For example, you can browse through the different Home
screens by swiping from left to right (and vise versa), slide the screen up
or down to scroll a list, or remove an application from the Recent apps
screen by flicking its graphic off the screen.

Double-tap

Tap the screen twice quickly to zoom, highlight text, or turn

the screen on/off. For example, quickly double-tap a section of a web
page to zoom that section to fit the width of the screen and control the
zoom in Maps and in other applications. Double-tap a word to highlight it.
Double-tap can also activate the KnockON feature to turn the touchscreen
on or off.

Pinch-to-zoom

Use your index finger and thumb in a pinch motion (to

zoom out) or spread motion (to zoom in) when using Chrome, a map,
photos, the rear camera lens, the Contacts list, the Favorites list, the
Groups list, the Messaging list, a music list, and POLARIS Office 5
documents. Spread apart to make screen information larger (easier to see
and read), or pinch together to view more area and information. The pinch
gesture also changes the Home screen. Pinch in on the Home screen to
change to mini canvas view, then spread apart to return to the normal
Home screen view. Spread apart on the normal Home screen to hide all of
your Home screen items, then pinch in to redisplay them.
