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 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 pop-
up menu for customizing the Home screen, touch an empty area on the 
Home screen until the pop-up menu appears.
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.
Swipe or slide
  Quickly move your finger across the surface of the 
screen, without pausing when you first touch it (so you don’t drag an 
item instead). For example, you can slide (move) the screen up or down 
to scroll a list, or browse through the different Home screens by swiping 
from left to right (and vice versa).
Home Screen Pane Indicator  
The dots indicate which Home screen pane you are viewing.
