Touchscreen controls
Moonlight for Android, iOS, and PC use the touch screen as a way of controlling the mouse cursor. Multi-touch devices can emulate more mouse functions than single-touch devices. There are two modes of touchscreen operation that you can choose between in Moonlight – one uses the touchscreen as a trackpad and the other emulates direct touchscreen input.
