Scroll

Scrolling is for moving objects upwards and downwards or moving objects sideways.

Pinch and stretch

Pinch and stretch are opposites of each other.

These gestures are often used with maps to zoom in and out.

Pinching is achieved by pressing two fingers down on the screen and bringing them together. This zooms in on content, while centering the image between the finger tips. For stretching, the fingers are moved apart from each other to zoom out on an image.
