Misstapping important things

Ugh, as an app developer, I frickin HATE these kinds of complaints. I mean, are you frickin kidding me?! You want me to spend hours developing a system because you're fat fingering the screen too much with your big chubby hamhands? Do you know how many hours devs can waste trying to code around accidental user input? It could be orders of magnitude greater than the actual product took to develop!

No. No we're not going to invest time and effort in protecting you from yourself. Take your brain off standby mode and pay attention to what you're doing.

This. Its not a broken system you are just a broken user. Take the time to pay attention and you won't have this problem.

As someone already said, if the product has a flaw, the producer should fix it and not clain to the buyers to be careful. After all if the producer is selling this thing he should match the buyer needs and not the otherwise.

Are you really an app developer? Because if you were, you'd know better than to post something like this. I can site probably thousands things that are built into all kinds of software specifically to make the user experience as simple and trouble free as possible. If you think it's unreasonable that a .24 - .5" diameter finger tip could accidentally tap a .125" button that is .125" away from an adjacent one on a 3.5 x 2.25" screen that uses touch gestures for input and navigation, then you should probably stop developing apps.

While I am generally careful with my fingers, I will still occasionally misclick. It just happens sometimes - especially on a phone screen. I really like the idea of not having an "end attack" button in war. Worst case scenario, you have to watch a golem bang on a wall for 30 seconds and it could save some people from catastrophe.

I've occasionally ended war attacks at two stars with zero chance of 3 stars to save some hero health, I think the system is just fine as it is, you have to press a button then tap a completely different part of the screen to confirm.

Any delay in the quit button would annoy people more then help. I think in over a year of playing I've accidently quit a raid once. In that same time the amount of times I've waited to hit 50% for a star and then quit as soon as I can is quite high. Those 2-3 seconds could cost you 30minutes or more waiting on your queen to heal.

Could Supercell please add a pressing system on important things? We're always tapping on the middle of the screen and when we misstap something, the OK is right there in the middle!

Pressing system now! At least 2 seconds of pressing into it goes!

To upgrade or boost something you need to press 2 buttons that are located in different places on screen. You can't just do that accidentally. What do you want fingerprint protection ?? Retina scanning??

Why do we need a pressing system?? Stop being clumsy and pressing upgrade when you don't want to upgrade :smirk:

Tapping on middle, misstapping the stuff, tapping on middle again (because that was what I was doing), OK is on middle.
