This is almost certainly “apple privilege” (since 3rd party devs would not be able to do such a hack at the OS level prior to app launch) and them preloading the camera so that the time to take a picture from tapping the icon is as minimal as possible
Isn’t this a part of a larger iOS problem where swipes often register as taps? I frequently have widgets think they were tapped on or ads open up in apps because I scrolled by with my finger resting on them
I feel ads in some apps (like on Instagram) are incredibly more sensitive to “unintentional tapping” when my finger even only gets close to the screen… annoyingly so.
Are you left handed? I am and I feel like a lot of websites and devices read lefties as swiping sideways when we’re scrolling down.
