Menu (hamburger) button difficult to tap on iPhone

[uh Clem]

I've been using MLO on desktop and iPhone forever, and couldn't live without it. (Well, almost.)

My one "problem" is the menu button on my iPhone (sometimes referred to as the "hamburger" icon--the three horizontal bars, in the upper left corner).

It feels like there's something wrong with it, because I often have to tap 5 or even 10 times before I get it. It ends up feeling like I'm playing a video game. I try tapping a little above, below, left, right, with a flattened finger, etc. etc. and eventually it works. Seems like maybe the tap target area is too small?

Does anybody else have this problem?

I'm sure it's not my phone, because it's persisted over several iPhones now, with different size screens.

Thanks for any suggestions. I only ask because I do it so many times each day, to manually trigger a sync. (And yes, I know I can set it to auto-sync. Thanks.)

I haven't noticed this problem. However, it's probably because I always swipe from the left edge when trying to bring up the menu and filter options - As a workaround, maybe you could train yourself to swipe/drag the menu "burger" towards the right.

Actually, you can swipe to the right anywhere on the screen. I never really bother about the hamburger. You can see the main screen as a "sheet" that you slide to the right. I personally find this screen behaviour much more useful then trying to aim a a minimal part of the screen.

- Swipe right to access list of outlines

- Swipe to the left to access selected task details

Well, *that* was easy. Thanks so much to both of you. I certainly could have saved myself some frustration by asking a few years ago.
