Basics 33 Drag Press and hold your finger with some pressure before you start to drag. While dragging, do not release your finger until you have reached the target position. Flick Flicking the screen is similar to swiping, except that you need to swipe your finger in light, quicker strokes. This finger gesture is always in a vertical direction, such as when flicking the contacts or message list. Rotate For most screens, you can automatically change the screen orientation from portrait to landscape by rotating the phone to the left. When entering text, you can turn the phone sideways to bring up a bigger keyboard. Refer to the Settings chapter for more details. Pinch For some applications, like Gallery or the web browser, you can "pinch" the screen using 2 fingers (for example, thumb and index fingers) to zoom in or zoom out when viewing a picture or a web page.
