Pinch zooming solved for any Windows Mobile device with a resistive screen

by 9 comments

If pinch zooming was the one thing you’ve missed on your Windows Mobile smartphone you shouldn’t worry on that anymore. The resistive screen of your smartphone will not bug you anymore. A third-party developer has found a solution allowing you to pinch zoom on any WinMo device in the most suitable apps such as web browser, gallery, maps, etc.


After months of hard work OndraSter – a developer from the XDA Developers forum – managed to enable pinch zooming and it works on any Windows Mobile device with a resistive screen.

The magic is simple – you download the app and it will start running in the background waiting to intercept the pinch gesture.

There is only one flaw – due to the resistive nature of the screen, one of your fingers should stay still, while the other moves.

Still, it’s a great achievement and anyone who is eager to test it can get the files and all the information from here.
