Handy to know for removing the on screen keyboard...

They hold their phone at a 15° angle for 2 seconds then whip the phone back like you're fishing. That gesture as recorded by the gyro then triggers the phone to communicate with the desktop to send information over regarding what was on screen. For example a website, or reddit comment, or photo.
