uses a “resistive touch” screen which
responds best to a hard pointed object or the tip of your fingernail, as opposed
to a tap of the soft skin of an outstretched fingertip. Curl your finger over so
that the tip of your fingernail is used.
The fingernail's hard, curved surface contacts the screen at one small point.
Therefore, much less finger pressure is needed, much greater precision is
possible (approaching that of a stylus, with a little experience), much less skin
oil is smeared onto the screen, and the fingernail can be silently moved across
the screen with very little resistance.

The smaller the point that comes in contact with the screen, the more
precise object selection can be. If you do not have long enough finger nails
to be used for precise tapping, we recommend using a stylus or non-sharp
pointed instrument to increase the precision of navigation.
