>>the gesture or movement of the finger on the screen can cause different things to happen<<

You mean like when I swipe my Android screen from side to side or top to bottom and it moves my view or opens the alerts? So Apple now holds a patent on that?

No, that’s not what the patent covers. What the patent would cover would be the two finger gesture to enlarge a picture or the two finger pinch to reduce it.
