I found this on google " Actually MouseButton1Click works on mobile"

#17

You could use UserInputService to detect a mobile tap
And yeah look above at what @SilentSuprion said.

#18

But wouldn’t that be on the whole screen area including the frame?

look at the solution.

#21

But ignoring the frame entirely. You referenced the userinputservice, not the frame so the script will interact with script thus frame touch or not

Yeah as you could probably tell, I’m more of a UI Designer. So im not that much of a scripter.

Also I did some research and…

frame.TouchTap:Connect(onTouchTap)

If you need help you might find it on deb hub

Also this is what touch tap is used for made by roblox:

The TouchTap event fires when the player performs a tap gesture on the UI element using a touch-enabled device. A tap is a quick single touch without any movement involved (a longer press would fire GuiObject.TouchLongPress , and moving during the touch would fire GuiObject.TouchPan and/or GuiObject.TouchSwipe ). It fires with a table of Vector2 s that describe the relative positions of the fingers involved in the gesture.

Since this event only requires one finger, this event can be simulated in Studio using the emulator and a mouse. Below is an example of TouchTap being fired on a Frame that is GuiObject.Active . Below, the event fires when the cursor briefly pauses (to simulate a tap) and the Frame toggles its GuiObject.BackgroundTransparency . The code for this can be found the code samples.

Yeah I cannot localise the mousebutton1click event on a mobile device only, that’s why I need a touch tap script

Does it work?_______________________

#31

It was very vague so no, it didn’t work

#32

It does not. Instead of MouseButton1Click, use MouseButton1Down.

Just use Activated:

script.Parent.TextButton.Activated:Connect(function() -- TextButton Example

Nevermind, I figured this out yesterday. You must use a text button not a frame like I was. And use “textbutton.Activated:Connect(function()
end)”
