Drag

Drag over scrubber bars or sliders to move their controls. Drag icons to rearrange them.

Flick

Flick your finger quickly up or down to scroll rapidly. You can wait for scrolling to stop,
or touch anywhere on the screen to stop it immediately. Touching the screen won’t choose
or activate anything.

In some lists, such as Playlists, you can flick down to show editing controls at the top.

Rotate

You can rotate the screen so it’s easier to see when you clip iPod nano to something. Place two
fingers on the screen and rotate in the direction you want the screen to move, until the screen
faces the way you want.
