The following terms are used for describing the different available actions using the touchscreen: G Tap: A single finger tap selects items, links, shortcuts and letters on the onscreen keyboard. G Touch and hold: Touch and hold an item on the screen by touching it and not lifting your finger until an action occurs.

You can drag items on the Home screen to reposition them, as described in Changing the Device's Wallpaper on page 43, or drag the Notifications Panel open, as described in Using the Notifications Panel on page 22.
