I am also experiencing severe delay when clicking cards in games. The game does not register the taps every single time. If I go too quickly the game thinks I'm trying to zoom and goes all crazy. As others have said, the log and chat buttons are very small and basically unusable with my 40-year-old eyeballs. I play exclusively on mobile and portrait mode, so this has not been a fun week on BGA.

On an unrelated note, a couple of my games keep having 502 errors and I'm unable to load them at all.
I have exactly the same problems and am a game developer on BGA -- I've been working to provide this feedback to staff so I'm hoping more improvements are on the way.

If anyone is curious, the delay (and tiny interface) is due to a non-native viewport being used. This apparently makes Android think tap zoom could be useful, but supporting tap zoom means every click has a big delay of 300 milliseconds waiting to see if you double clicked.
Thanks for the update GT, your effortsare appreciated. I assume Staff read the forums too?
I read recently that BGA had hit a huge milestone for sign ups so I imagine they're taking this quite seriously since this is not a good user experience for new members on the affected platforms.

As developers, we just heard this morning about another planned update which should improve player panel and interface behavior. Since it's Friday, I assume we may not see the change until next week.

Some games may need their own maintainer to adjust the game slightly, and some may work automatically. Thanks for your patience as we work through this. In the end, the result should be more robust across all web browsers.

Hi! I didn't have any of these problems until today. I always use the full screen button. But suddenly, that button is gone. So now everything is too big. I use chrome. Same problem on samsung phone and xiaomi tablet.

Bonjour, j'ai exactement le même problème que "nelehelena", avec la tablette... quand reviendra-t-on à l'ancienne présentation, car pour l'instant il est impossible de jouer correctement... même le pourcentage d'avancement du jeu a disparu !!

Glad (in a way) that it's not just me with these issues. It was just about manageable earlier this week but it's worse today on Hearts, the full screen button doesn't appear on my tablet in portrait view, so I have to rotate to landscape, go full screen, then rotate back to portrait...

Most of the time i play on tablet (android) and rally like it that way. But now the full screen button disapeared and it's horrible playing this way. I hope the button will be back soon because I rally hate it now.

I’m glad I’m seeing that others are having game play issues as well as I thought it was just me. Playing Solo on my phone has suddenly become next to impossible as the game is suddenly weaving in and out, will zoom in for some reason, or not play double cards. This was never an issue before. Hopefully whatever upgrades are happening behind the scenes will improve upon the game play.

Most of the issue I was seeing with chrome 128 on S23 (I previously said it was S20), seem to have been addressed, thanks.

Hope it improves for everyone else soon.
