A lot of the responses are talking about how apps should fix this, which I agree with, but I'd also like to see it at a higher level...

I'd like to see frontends (browsers, Android, iOS?) remember their widget hit points for ~400ms, and if you've touched somewhere that had a different widget hit point within that time, use the old widget.



Or simply ignore clicks on elements that haven't been visible for longer than a few hundred milliseconds. I'd be happy to click again.


Or at a minimum don’t go to the new widget but just have a UI indication that you registered the touch/click.
