Pressing the crown afterward will take you back to the home screen. The Digital Crown also allows certain apps to scroll up and down on the display.

Now, the reason the proprietary stylus works on Note phones but doesn't work on Galaxy S devices right now is due to the technology used — the Note phablets have a special Wacom digitizer underneath the display, which is separate from the touch digitizer. This allows the phone to distinguish from stylus touches and finger taps and do all that cool stuff like palm rejection, floating cursors, and so on.
