ios text fields hard to click
ios text fields hard to click
In the simulator and on the device the it feels really difficult to get a text field into edit mode, often having to tap 2-3 times. In the browser on my computer its easy to click. Any ideas on how i can make this better?

Hmm, There is a slight delay on it going into edit mode (300ms) is it possible you are seeing that effecting you? Also, what version of iOS are you using?

You are totally correct, this is the issue i am seeing.
I also get it with buttons basically any touch interaction?
Are you using touchStart or click? I did some research and everywhere says the delay expeirenced is likely a result of using click. Would it be possible to support touchStart?

There is a bug in iOS that I think was finally fixed in 5.0 that is forcing us to put in that delay. I don't think we have yet removed it for iOS5 as of yet. Once that is in, users using iOS5 will have a much better experience.
