[nabs-l] iPhone help

I would suggest double tapping the sliders rather than sliding them.
You can slide them but sometimes it is hard to find the slider or the
slide gets mistaken for a left click. Also I think the sliders go from
left to right, not right to left. But if you just double tap whenever
it says slide, you shouldn't have any trouble.
