The "pinch and scroll" function on your iPhone is a great feature. Pinching allows you to zoom into specific areas on your phone, and scrolling, obviously, let's you scroll. So how's it go? Best Buy has answers. The Best Buy Mobile team explains how simple it is to pinch and scroll on your Apple iPhone.

Moses Blue: "Hi, Moses Blue, Best Buy Mobile, Charlotte, North Carolina. I'm going to give you a quick tip on how to pinch and scroll using your iPhone. Take your finger and just move it up and down, which allows you to scroll. If you want to zoom in, take your two fingers, hold the iPhone down, pinch in, pinch out and that allows you to zoom, and you can still scroll. And when you want to zoom back out, pinch it back in. That's a quick tip on how to pinch and scroll using your iPhone."
