tap and hold
Sustained screen contact
Tap and hold is a touchscreen gesture where you press your finger on an element and keep it there for a moment rather than releasing immediately.
This typically opens a context menu, selects an item for editing, or activates a secondary function—the touchscreen equivalent of a right-click: Tap and hold the app icon to rearrange your home screen.
