Double tap also does not work in Chrome on mobile. Wih no right click on touch only devices, there is no way to mark a Blackhole.

Hi @OzBob thanks for the info. Are you using chrome on iOS ?

For now, you can also tap "clear / flag" toggle at the bottom to switch between modes :)

@kosamari Is double-tap implemented? I'm using: v1.0.2, Chrome 74 on my Android smartphone.

I've just watched your IO presentation and at https://youtu.be/w8P5HLxcIO4?t=1597 You talk about the decision not to support double tap. Performance is a good reason to let this one go on low end devices. I've used the "clear/flag" toggle, which is OK for now, but I'd prefer a double tap

If you double tap in empty space it changes the flag mode.

We'll never support double tap on an unrevealed square due to the performance impact it would have with the rest of the game.

This isn't an old/new device thing. It would add at least 300ms to every tap. This used to be a problem for the whole web, and it was really bad. https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2013/12/300ms-tap-delay-gone-away
