Can’t wait for some people to cite increased voter turnout as evidence of fraud!
That’s some solid form, 10/10. 🏅
I think you’re on to something w/ transition scale or animation scale, even though I’m not seeing them in GrapheneOS settings even after activating developer mode. I may just need to request this feature in GrapheneOS or look for a third party app that unlocks this setting. You’ve also given me a new phrase to search for, so thank you for that.
EDIT: I found Transition Scale and Animation Scale in GrapheneOS after activating developer mode, not sure what I did differently this time. Alas, neither of those settings solves the problem, so the hunt continues.
I’m not using any screen protector on my new phone (not yet anyway). I don’t think it’s an issue with screen sensitivity. How I see it, the issue is that in order to advance the screen left or right (say in an image carousel), I have to stretch my thumb really far over to the left side of the screen. If I don’t reach really far over, and just do a lazy right flick instead, the screen registers the touch and moves right a little bit, but when I lift my thumb, the current screen just springs back into place instead of advancing to the next screen. It’s most noticeable when viewing screenshots in the app store.
I’ve tested with Smooth Display, but still have the same issue. I think that setting has more to do with screen refresh rates and animations. I don’t think Touch Sensitivity is it, either. This seems more to do with making it easier to register touches with a screen protector. The problem that I have is not registering touches, it’s that when I swipe (e.g. left or right to sift through an image carousel), the original screen springs back into position instead of advancing to the next screen. It happens a lot in the app store when I’m using my thumb to browse the screenshots. I swipe left b/c I want to view the second screenshot, but the first screenshot moves over but not enough to advance to the second screenshot. It just snaps back into place and I’m still looking at the first screenshot. Same issue in reverse when I’m using my thumb to swipe right, it’s like it wants me to start the swipe gesture from too far left on the screen where it’s not very easy to reach, and it’s not ergonomic to have to basically wiggle the phone in my hand to reach that far over to start the swipe gesture. In summary, it’s a navigation issue, not a touch screen issue—I hope I’m making sense. Thanks anyway for chiming in, though.
I don’t see this option on GrapheneOS, even after toggling on developer mode. Thanks anyway for chiming in.
Editing to clarify that there is a setting called Smooth Display, and another called Force Peak Refresh Rate, but neither of these helps with the issue I’m having, which is that I’m constantly having to swipe multiple times to get the gesture to take.
