Hello,
We would like to know better the differences between tap and click events. We have checked the jquery docs, but still wanted to know:

1. Generally speaking, is tap faster than click? (as this posts says: https://getsatisfaction.com/apperyio/...)

2. Can we use tap event carelessly instead of every click event that we have? (our mobile app has several clicks, but all of them involve touching the screen)

3. If 1 and 2 are both 'yes', is there any reason why Appery tutorials always use click instead of tap?

   All help and experience is welcome. Thanks a lot!

Hello!
1) Yes, tap event is faster than click on 0,3 seconds
2) Yes, you can
3) I think it's connected with the fact that Click event is supported by all browser and devices (event old one)

Thank you so much, Maryna!

Hi all. this topic was 8 months ago. but i hope, my questions still relevant.

it's :
if i want to change a text on button, why i should click twice to changing value for first time, the second time is only need single click to change the value

thanks, i hope i can get some fast responses and explain too

Hi Adith,

Could you please show us how you have implement this functionality?

this is code if button clicked

var kondisi = Appery('track').text();
//alert(kondisi);

if (kondisi==="TRACK"){
Appery('track').text('STOP');
}else{
Appery('track').text('TRACK');
}

Hello,

In the text of the button there are invisible characters (spaces, line breaks), which do not allow condition to work for the first time. You should try this way:

prevar kondisi = Appery('track').text();
kondisi = kondisi.trim();
if (kondisi==="TRACK") {
Appery('track').text('STOP');
} else {
Appery('track').text('TRACK');
}/pre

WOW evgene,

i didn't focus on invisible characters.

Thank you evgene.
Thank you Appery.
