Working with menus
There are two kinds of Android menus: options menus and context
menus.

Options menus contain tools that apply to the activities of the current
screen or application, not to any specific item on the screen. You open
options menus by touching the Menu key
. Not all screens have
options menus; if you touch the Menu key
on a screen that has no
options menu, nothing happens.
Some screens have more options menu items than can fit in the main
menu; touch More to open a menu of additional items.
Options menus contain items that
apply to the current screen or to
the application as a whole.
Touch to open more menu items.
Context menus
Context menus contain tools that apply to a specific item on the screen.
You open a context menu by touching and holding an item on the
screen. Not all items have context menus. If you touch and hold an item
that has no context menu, nothing happens.
