dotnet maui swipe gestures not working on device, but working in emulator-CodePudding

I have been trying to find a solution for swipe gestures not working on devices but working fine in emulator. In visual studio running android 33.x on x64 platform emulator swipe gestures work. But on hardware device it does not at all.

Tap gestures are working on device and emulator.

Here is xaml code

}

Any suggestions on how to fix this? Or is it a problem with maui? I am going to try default config for swipe gestures and modify post after I test. I wanted to use url variable to go back using viewmodel. But all I need is a swipe left to go back. This may be I just can't code this way but I don't understand why it works in emulator and not on device.

CodePudding user response：

There is something seriously wrong with it, that failed me on several occasions in the last months.

Here for example: https://github.com/dotnet/maui/issues/7403

It is working in some cases, you cant write normally custom controls however.

Try adding it, as the very first example, here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/maui/fundamentals/gestures/swipe?view=net-maui-7.0

Also, Tap gesture will fire anyway. (This is why you will see many swipe controls, to have double tap effect, not tap).

CodePudding user response：

This is a working example. It works on Windows, Android emulator, and Android devices. I don't know about iOS or Mac. I do not have a developer account. My sample solution to swipe gestures with Maui
