Steps to reproduce

Open Obsidian on your mobile, display the file explorer, do a long press on a folder or a file and the first one will produce the vibration but will not open the action menu

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

N

Expected result

That the long press opens the action menu on the first try

Actual result

The menu doesn’t open the first time, you have to do it a second time for it to open.

Environment

The first press is a long press, there’s the haptic vibration, but the menu doesn’t come up. Then if I press it again, it works. It’s really the first long press

it works fine for me.

You didn’t fill the environment section.

I’m now having trouble reproducing it, I have since then done a point update for iOS, perhaps that has changed something?

Will keep an eye on it and record the next time…

Yes, unfortunately you began this thread by not following the bug report template and the troubleshooting steps.

This makes everything harder.

Please, post your debug info as reported by the show debug info command. Please post a screen recording happening in a new vault (no themes/no plugins). thanks

I was noticing this issue recently. (I thought it had been a problem in the past and it got fixed, but I could be misremembering).

After some testing, it seems like the first long press after the app loads doesn’t work. Until now I’d thought the problem was that every long press in the file browser had to be done twice.

This is my main vault, followed by a testing vault (I tested in both, which is how I eventually found that it may just be the first long press after loading).

I also see this behavior in the Outline. The first time I long press a heading after the app loads, iit vibrates but I can’t drag it. I have to long press it again for it to work.
