Is there ANY way to turn off double-tap = zoom on iPad Safari?
My iPad is currently running iOS 9.2.1, and is a model ME406LL/A
I am having accessibility problems. I have very shaky hands. I am trying to use the iPad on web sites, and when I try to enter information, tapping on a button or a field, Safari interferes hugely by zooming the screen. I spend a very frustrating amount of time UN-zooming it and trying again.
I looked in the general settings accessibility, and in the Safari settings in the system settings, and I looked in Safari (which has almost no settings at all in the actual browser that I could find) and I was unable to find this capability. It seems like an obvious accessibility feature, OS X has it as far back as 10.6.8 for instance, you can completely control the double-click rate, so I know someone at Apple has thought this through... am I just missing something on the iPad? It sure wouldn't be the first time. 🙂
I do have an Android tablet that lets me use the web considerably more effectively until I can find an iPad solution, but I'd really just like to use my iPad sometimes. It's just so frustrating to use as it stands now.
Thanks for any pointers.
