On a phone
On a screen narrower than 1,024 pixels, such as a phone or a tablet held upright, the editor is laid out for touch: the document fills the screen, and what the desktop puts in side panels opens from a bar at the bottom.
What each touch does
- Tap text to edit it where it is.
- Tap a picture or a box to select it and show its toolbar.
- Long-press a block to open its menu, the one a right-click opens on a computer.
- Drag to move around the page, and pinch to zoom.
Blocks are not dragged on a touch screen: a finger moving on the page scrolls it. To move a block, use Move in its toolbar, or the ⋯ beside it in the Outline.
The bars
- At the top: undo and redo, the document’s name, Download and, without an account, Sign in.
- At the bottom: Insert adds blocks, Outline lists the document’s blocks as a tree, Edit changes the selected block, and More holds the rest.
The block toolbar
A selected block has a toolbar of its own: Edit properties, Move, Duplicate, Delete and Deselect. Move opens Move up, Move down, Nest into previous, Move out to parent, Wrap in container and Select parent.
More

Without an account, the document is kept in this browser; a free account keeps it online, in your Library.
