Touchscreen
Your touchscreen provides an excellent way to interact with and use your
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 or tap A single finger touch selects items. For example, tap an
icon (e.g., an application, widget, or folder), tap words (e.g., menu
selection or to answer an 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 editing a contact, touch and hold a contact entry until
the menu pops up.
Drag Touch and hold an item for a moment and then, without lifting your
finger
, move your finger across the screen until you reach the target
position. For example, you can drag items on the Home screen to

information. The pinch in gesture also changes the Home screen to mini
canvas view and the spread apart gesture returns to the normal Home
screen view.
