Does it also happen in the desktop version?

• This bug does not occur in the latest version of Anki Desktop

What are the steps to reproduce this bug?

1. Download no_touch_events.apkg.zip.
2. Rename it to no_touch_events.apkg and import it into AnkiDroid.
3. Open the deck in the new study screen.
4. Show the answer.
5. Double tap on the image but don't lift your finger after the second tap. Instead, wait for a few seconds.
6. Do step 5 again.

Now you can't use any gestures and the HTML elements are not interactive (:hover doesn't work, links don't work, etc).
