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 (if the feature is 

supported by the application).

• 

Pinch-to-Zoom

 – Use your index finger and thumb in a pinching or spreading 

motion to zoom in or out when using the browser or Maps, or when browsing 
pictures (if the feature is supported by the application).

• 

Rotate the screen

 – From many applications and menus, the physical orientation 

of the screen adjusts to the device's 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 keys.
