Using the touch screen
You can touch your Kobo Vox screen to select items, open books, turn pages, and more. In many
cases you can just touch the screen lightly with a fingertip to interact with it. There are a few other
gestures that you may find useful.
• Tapping
Tap the screen lightly.
This is the gesture youʼll use the most. Just tap the screen lightly to open a book, turn a
page, select a menu, and more.
• Swipe
Put your finger on the screen and move it either up and down or left and right.
You can use this gesture to scroll through your library list or to unlock the home screen. To
scroll through your library, swipe your finger up and down to view different books or
shelves. To unlock the Home screen, swipe the lock icon from right to left.
• Press and hold
Put your finger on the screen and hold it there for three seconds.
This is also called ʻlong pressʼ. This gesture allows you to select text while reading and
sometimes get to menus and options.
• Dragging
Press and hold your finger on what you want to drag. Then move your finger to where you
want to drag it.
