Touch controls are a user interface method that allows users to interact with devices by directly touching the screen. This technology is commonly found in smartphones, tablets, and touchscreen computers, enabling actions like tapping, swiping, and pinching to zoom. Touch controls make it easier for users to navigate applications and access features without needing a physical keyboard or mouse. These controls rely on capacitive or resistive touchscreens, which detect the presence and location of a finger. Capacitive screens are more common in modern devices, as they respond to the electrical properties of the human body, providing a more responsive experience.
