[Feature Request] Please please please let me disable tap to close image

I hate this feature with a burning passion. It makes it hard to zoom in and move around. It's slow. And when my screen dims while I read I can't wake it up without closing the image.

Please let me disable this feature in settings

Also when you open a big image like comic it's inconvinient when it closes when you push it too much towards top or bottom. I'm not swiping it off, I want to read the first panel.

Thanks for the feedback. I will add a disable option in the next release.

Amazing! Thank you! I love the app, keep up the great work. I also wouldn't be opposed to paying for premium features to help support development!

I've used relay for Reddit for 10+ years and couldn't use an app without tap to close, but I agree that you should be able to choose!

Tap to close is great!

I think the issue is Connect not differencing tap vs long press; where long press would not close, and could then be used for scrolling, zooming, and screen activity to prevent screen timeout.

I've been using connect and I feel like it's only been an issue for the last 3-4 days, really making it hard to enjoy porn

Nice to see some honesty.

I agree with everything you said.

That has been my only complaint with this app. It's just so frustrating when trying to read a screenshot.

SlothMama@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 3y

My God yes, and let me long press a picture to save.

My only complaint is this too, and I still use Connect over the other 5 or so Android apps I've tried. Thanks!
