    <thetext>Theoretically the following methods are low level methods as it&apos;s theoretically possible to implement all other touch methods using those methods:
void press (WebElement id, optional Long x, optional Long y);
void moveTo (WebElement id, optional Long x, optional Long y);
void release ();
void wait (optional number? ms);

&quot;tap&quot; can theoretically be implemented as &quot;press&quot; + short &quot;wait&quot; depending on device + &quot;release&quot;
&quot;longPress&quot; - &quot;press&quot; + longer &quot;wait&quot; depending on device + &quot;release&quot;

I don&apos;t see a point of &quot;cancel&quot; as it&apos;s not something that a user can do with touch screen. User can remove his finger from touch screen/lock device/touch screen using another finger. He can&apos;t &quot;cancel&quot;.

Of course that makes sense only from theoretical point of view but &quot;click&quot; is also not a combination of low level methods if native events are turned off.</thetext>
