Once you’ve done the above, delete everything above this line.

Add a card, deselect, select again and try to move by dragging.

Did you follow the troubleshooting guide? [Y/N]

Y

Expected result

Ability to move the card.

Actual result

The card moves a very small distance at a time, and must be dragged again to move it again, or the card doesn’t move at all.

@WhiteNoise Have the same issue on Android.

If no map is selected and then I tap and hold, I can drag without any issue.

However, of the map I wish to drag is selected, tapping and holding fires the visual indicator that I should be able to drag, yet it does not drag. Occasionally it shows visual indicators that I am in drag mode (like a line that shows alignment between 2 maps). Sometimes it also does move, for a single grid dot or whatever it is called.

Attached a video to demonstrate.

I don’t understand where this “maps” came from. If you are referring to cards, I am still not able to reproduce.

What is the output of your “show debug info” command?

Oh sorry. The previous user used the term maps so I thought that was what they were called. They are cards, yes.
