Finger gestures
	Tap	When you want to type using the keyboard, select items
		onscreen such as application and settings icons, or press
		onscreen buttons, simply tap them with your finger.
	Press and	To open the available options for an item (for example, a
	hold	contact or link in a web page), simply press and hold the item.
	Swipe or	To swipe or slide means to quickly drag your finger vertically
	slide	or horizontally across the screen.
	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 turning the phone
		sideways. When entering text, you can turn the phone
		sideways to bring up a bigger keyboard.
	Pinch	In some apps, like Gallery or the web browser, you can “pinch”
		the screen using two fingers (for example, thumb and index
		finger) to zoom in or zoom out when viewing a picture or a
		web page.
