Swipe to remove tokens can be accidentally and easily triggered

[baldover]

Hi. First thanks for this awesome piece of software it is a delight to use :-). The latest update sure did brought welcomed new features but one major thing that's bothering me though is how easy it is to remove a token. As careless as I am I've unintentionally triggered it few times already, and every time it's an "oh sh*t" moment.

@baldover Thanks for the feedback, the Action Sheet confirmation was intended to prevent accidental removal but maybe there are still improvements that can be made here.

@baldover are you referring to iOS or iPad? I see we only have the action sheet confirmation for iOS.

The message that pops up to say ‘remove token’ could include name of token requesting delete, just for extra confirmation as tiles slide over extremely fast

I think here are a few issues here.

• The main one is that the "swipe right" action that triggers the delete is FAR too sensitive. You only need to slightly move your finger and it goes into delete mode.
• When going into delete mode, the card flies off the screen far too quickly, and it appears the item is already deleted before the confirmation popup. This puts you in a panic that you just deleted your token. The delete action should work like other stock IOS apps, where the "delete" button is slowly revealed during the swipe, and the card stays on the screen until deleting is completed. The card should not fly off the screen like this, and the delete action should not be triggered until the swipe goes at least 33% across the screen. Just look at how other standard IOS apps work, like Notes or Stocks.
• In other IOS apps, the delete action is triggered by swiping left, not right, so this conflicts with how people are used to deleting things.

Thank you for your comments @orev, I agree with most of them. I would like to switch the tokens listing(TokensViewController) layout to use a table view controller, instead of a collection view controller. The table view controller provides functionality to enable the swipe gesture behavior you see in standard iOS apps like Mail, Messages, and Notes.

I second this request that the swipe-to-remove interaction be reconsidered. Removing tokens is a very rare interaction, and should be extremely difficult to do accidentally.

It could be something like long-press, then multiple confirmations. At the very least, the swipe sensitivity should be double-checked. It is much more sensitive than similar swipe-to-archive interactions in other programs. An option to undo the deletion should be available as well, rather than just having the entry disappear.

The penalty for accidentally removing a token is possibly-permanent loss of access to the account you're using.

Thanks.
