The Basics
Touchscreen
Your touchscreen provides an excellent way to interact with and use your
Android phone. With the touch of your finger, you can download and use
available applications, make menu selections, and access data saved to
your phone.
The following terms are used for describing the different available actions
using the touchscreen:
Touch A single finger touch selects items. For example, touch an icon
(e.g., application or menu item), touch words (e.g., menu selection or to
answer 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 customizing the Home screen, touch an empty area on
the Home screen until the context menu appears.
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.
You can drag items on the Home screen to reposition them.
Swipe or slide Quickly move your finger 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 slide (move) the screen up or down
to scroll a list, or browse through the different Home screens by swiping
from left to right (and vice versa).
Home Screen Pane Indicator
The dots at the bottom left and right corners indicate which Home screen pane you are viewing.
