Touch controls (Android) feel off, double tap conflicts between skip and play/pause
Hey everyone, I wanted to bring up something that's been bugging me with the touch controls on Android (think iOS has the same problems, but I use Android tablet), and I'm curious if others are experiencing the same thing.
The current double tap gesture setup feels really inconsistent. Double tapping to skip forward/backward and double tapping for play/pause constantly conflict with each other, and I find myself triggering the wrong action pretty much every other time. It honestly feels like ~80% of the screen is treated as the play/pause zone, so even when going for a quick skip, I end up pausing the video instead.
It would be great if the team could look into improving this. One approach would be to handle play/pause with a two finger tap, similar to how Infuse does it, which avoids the conflict entirely. Alternatively, shrinking the play/pause tap area to a smaller zone in the center of the screen would already make a big difference.
Anyone else running into this? Would love to know if it's a wider issue.
