 Touch & hold: Touch & hold an item on the screen by touching it and not lifting your finger until an action occurs.  Drag: Touch & hold an item for a moment and then, without lifting your finger, move your finger on the screen until you reach

the target position. For example, you can drag to reposition shortcuts on the Home screen.

 Swipe or slide: Quickly move your finger across the surface of the sc reen, without pausing when you first touch (so you don't

drag something instead). For example, you can slide a Home screen left or right to view the other Home screens.

once and pinching them together (to zoom out) or spreading them apart (to zoom in).
