When you click on an image and double tap to zoom, it zooms to the microscopic level or is it just me?

      Double tapping and holding on the second tap for granular zoom with one finger is a standard feature on Android.

      The person you’re replying to is just suggesting an alternative for one-finger zoom. Pinching with two fingers still works.

        Yes pinch to zoom is the norm but hold one finger and move it to zoom isn’t. Though having double tap to zoom alongside pinch is quite common in Chinese Android ROMs afaik

          Ah, I see. I just tried double-tapping an image, and it does zoom in considerably, though that’s a vast improvement over when zooming was so restricted in Jerboa that I couldn’t zoom enough to read the text in screenshots and other images. (I’ve always pinched though, so I guess I have more control over the zoom level.)

      I know at least Firefox and Signal do the same. I don’t see why it should be changed, since pinching and double tapping are also supported. Although, the zoom on double tap is indeed way too strong.
