Abstract
Choosing quickly from a long list of items is one of the key offerings of the mobile UI. The limited real estate on mobile phone screens makes data grids a challenge and leads to extensive and creative use of lists. Grouping of items, scrolling, gesture-sensitivity, and images make lists one of the most versatile and reuseable data-bound tools available. Lists are to mobile development what the data grid is to web development.
