3. Get Around Your NOOK Tablet > Using Gestures to Control the NOOK Tablet

Using Gestures to Control the NOOK Tablet

You control the NOOK with nothing more than your fingers, whether you be reading a book, watching a movie, downloading an app, or navigating around the screen. Here are the gestures you’ll use.

Tap

Tap something on your screen with your fingertip. Don’t push, don’t press; just a light tap will do. It performs the most basic of actions, such as selecting an app to run, or switching to your Library.

Double-tap

Tap not once, but twice on your screen in quick succession to perform a wide variety of shortcuts. Double-tap the home screen and it’ll clean up the screen and arrange all the covers of your books, magazines, and newspapers in a grid. Double-tap in the Shop or Library on a book or periodical cover and a new window opens that provides details about it.
