Approximate Cost: $0.00

Product Description: 

Touch and hold delay adjusts the amount of time before a user's touch on the screen becomes a touch and hold.

Main Features: 

  • A longer touch and hold delay means that the users need to keep their finger in the same place for longer before a touch becomes a touch and hold. If users find that they accidentally touch and hold when they intend to tap, they can choose a longer delay.
  • To adjust the touch and hold delay, follow these steps:
    • Go to Settings > Accessibility > Touch and hold delay.
    • Select Short, Medium, or Long.
    • More about the "touch and hold" gesture
  • "Touch and hold" is a common gesture on Android devices. It means that the users touch an item on the screen and don't lift their finger until the item responds. Many times, touch and hold takes action on something on the screen. For example, to move an app icon on a home screen, touch and hold the icon, then drag it to the new location. Sometimes touch and hold is called a "long press."
