Tap: Use a brief touch to select items on the display or to enter text on the

virtual QWERTY keyboard. For example: touch an Application icon to open

the application. A light touch works best.

Touch and hold: Touch and hold an icon or key to open the available

options, or to access a pop-up menu. For example: touch and hold from

the Home screen to access a menu of customization options.

Flick: Move your finger in lighter, quicker strokes than swiping. This finger

gesture is always used in a vertical motion, such as when flicking through

contacts or a message list.

Swipe or slide: Quickly drag your finger vertically or horizontally across

the screen. This allows you to move the area of focus or to scroll through a

list. For example: slide your finger left or right on the Home screen to scroll

among the seven panels.

Drag: Press and hold your finger with some pressure before you start to

move it. Do not release your finger until you have reached the target

position.

Rotate: Automatically change the screen orientation from portrait to

landscape by turning the device sideways. For example: rotate to

landscape orientation when entering text, to provide a larger keyboard, or

when viewing web content to minimize scrolling.

Pinch: “Pinch” the screen using your thumb and

forefinger to zoom out when viewing a picture or

a Web page. (Move fingers inward to zoom out.)

Spread: “Spread” the screen using your thumb

and forefinger to zoom in when viewing a picture or a Web page. (Move

fingers outward to zoom in.)
