- Touch and hold the item until it lifts up (if it’s text, select it first).
- While you continue to hold the item, use another finger to swipe up from the bottom edge of the screen and pause to reveal the Dock or press the Home button (on an iPad with a Home button).
- Drag the item over the other app to open it (a ghost image of the item appears under your finger as you drag).
You can drag over items in the app to navigate to where you want to drop the item (as you drag, appears wherever you can drop the item). For example, you can drag over the notes list to open the note where you want to drop the item, or you can use another finger to open a new note where you can drop the item.
If you change your mind about moving an item, lift your finger before dragging, or drag the item off the screen.
