I am having trouble getting links to open in Chrome search results. I need to double tap for the link to work. A single touch (that works fine in Safari) does nothing. I am running iOS 15.0.2 in an iPhone 13. Chrome version is the latest update: 94.0.4606.76. Any ideas on how to fix this or is it likely a bug that Chrome will fix? I have not seen any other reports of this problem. I would appreciate any help.
iPhone 13, iOS 15
Thanks for the suggestion. I did try that a couple of times and the results were not consistently good. My quick solution was to delete Chrome and go back to using Firefox. It works perfectly on the iPhone and on my PCs.

Hey RT1225,
It sounds like you're having an issue with links in Chrome on your iPhone. We can understand wanting to look into that further. We want to help.
We'd recommend uninstalling and reinstalling the app to see if that helps: Delete apps on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
If that doesn't resolve the issue, we'd suggest checking Google's help page for Chrome issues for further information and assistance: Google Chrome Help
Thanks!
Was there an explanation for the issue or a solution that doesn’t involve using another web browser? I have the same issue. It’s just weird, as if links aren’t occupying all the space on the screen that they should.
I switched all my computers and iOS devices to Firefox, and am reasonably happy with it. I do use Chrome from time to time and it now seems to respond normally to a single touch. Maybe they did a fix for it? I am not going back to Chrome as some other browsers are reputed to respect privacy more.
Same for me. Single tap sometimes works, I have to press and hold and then open in a new tab to get to the link/page.
Having the same issue. Links in Chrome are just not working.
forced to use Safari again. Which isn’t ideal.
chrome is essentially useless on IOS at this point. Shame
Yes I just switched to Firefox on iOS and PC computers. Works well and synchronizes the way Chrome did.
If you go back and click the link again (while it’s pondering life’s deeper moments) it will work.
Best of luck. Ridiculous that this hasn’t been fixed yet.
