Visual feedback long tap before vs after release about quickcursor

Yes. Apparently this behaviour was introduced with Android 13.

In version 1.21.4 I've added more options to choose on "tracker long tap" and I had to make them all work mostly the same.

I've choosen the visual feedback to happen on action trigger (on gesture simulation or some action at cursor position, in this case long tap, or swipe, or copy text at cursor position, etc) and the vibration feedback when the action was registered (when the time needed to trigger the action has passed).

I understand that this is not enough for anyone and some users, like in your case, might want the visual feedback to see when the action was registered and maybe the vibration when the action was triggered, but right now this is the way it works.

Thanks for feedback! I will see what other feedback I will get about this one and see if it is worth to extend it more.

Adding more and more choices might be good for some users but will also increase the complexity of the app (to configure it and to maintain it).

It looks like there is a bug in version 1.24.3 with the "Vibration feedback" setting. The change is not propagated only after you change "long tap action" again. So, if you want to activate vibration, you have to toggle it on, and then change "long tap action". I've fixed it in 1.24.4, and I will release it as soon as possible.

Edit: I will let this issue open because it is a valid feedback and a good feature request. I can't promise when I will implement it but others might need it as well and provide feedback

So you did carefully consider the whole scenario! It's just that when someone has vibrations turned off they're left with only the visual feedback. And my current ROM (Google Pixel Android 13) doesn't allow me to disable general haptics in Android's UI separately from haptics in third party apps. It's super stupid. I don't want haptic feedback when opening quick settings or flicking through my recent apps, but I do want third party apps to be able to provide haptic feedback. But that's not possible with Google's flavour of Android, at least not on my phone ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I think on LineageOS this was not an issue.

I'll stick with the older version of Quick Cursor for now.

This is really strange. I never heard about this situation. It sounds like a bug on Pixel, not a feature.
