The Basics
Touchscreen
Your touchscreen provides an excellent way to interact with and
use your Android 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
A single finger touch selects items. For example, touch an
icon (e.g., application or menu item), touch words (e.g., menu
selection or to answer onscreen question), or touch letters 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 pop-up menu for customizing the Home
screen, touch an empty area on the Home screen until the menu
pops up.
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, as described in
“
Customizing the Home Screen

on page 52, and you drag to open the Notifications panel, as
described in
“
Managing Notifications
”
on page 46.
