Abstract

Choosing quickly from a long list of items is one of the key offerings of the mobile UI.

Grouping of items, scrolling, gesture sensitivity, and images make lists one of the most versatile and reusable data-bound tools available. Lists are to mobile development what the data grid is to web development.
