I want to activate touch events on Chrome to facilitate the debugging of an app that uses touchstart and touchend events.
It seems this post is a bit outdated because I cannot get the Overrides menu when I go to the developer settings, not on Chrome nor on Chrome Developer. This is what I get on Chrome Dev 73:
I've searched thoroughly in the settings but no sight of this checkbox. I've seen no up-to-date tutorial to activate them. How can I do?
Thank you for your help.
Two methods in the devtools:
Press Escape to show the drawer at the bottom. Choose menu > Sensors. At the bottom, set Touch = Force enabled.
Turn on Device Toolbar (second button at the top). Choose menu > Add device type. Set it to either "Mobile" or "Desktop (touch)".
Both of these should enable touch events.
It should be a chrome flag. Type this address into the chrome URL bar:
chrome://flags/#touch-events
it should highlight the Touch Events API, after that just press the drop-down box and change it to enabled.
