Touch screen tips
Here are some tips on how to navigate on your phone.
Tap or touch – A single finger tap selects items, links, shortcuts and letters on the
•
on-screen keyboard.
Touch and hold – Touch and hold an item on the screen by tapping it and not
•
lifting your finger until an action occurs.
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 – To swipe or slide, quickly move your finger across the surface
•
of the screen, without pausing when you first tap it (so you don't drag an item
instead).
Double-tap – Double-tap to zoom on a webpage or a map.
•
Pinch-to-Zoom – Use your index finger and thumb in a pinching or spreading
•
motion to zoom in or out when using the browser, Maps, or when viewing pictures.
Rotate the screen – From many applications and menus, the screen orientation
•
adjusts to the device physical orientation.
NOTE
Do not press too hard; the tap screen is sensitive enough to pick up a light,
•
yet firm tap.
Use the tip of your finger to tap the option you want. Be careful not to tap
•
any other buttons.
