2.2 Buttons and other controls on the screen
When you are using iGO8, you usually tap buttons on the touch screen.
You only need to confirm selections or changes in iGO8 if the application needs to restart, it needs to
perform a major reconfiguration, or you are about to lose some of your data or settings. Otherwise,
iGO8 saves your selections and applies the new settings without confirmation as soon as you use the
controls.
