Difference between Click and Touch Listeners in Android

Question

I have a bit of doubt. I am using an image button (e.g. Play icon in media player). I want to know which action Listener I am supposed to use, onClickListener or onTouchListener

Answer 1

The onClickListener is a number of events that are triggered using either the keyboard or the touchscreen. They are performed on a specific view, and the entire view receives the event. In contrast, the onTouchListener is used only for touchscreen events, and they cannot be triggered through the keyboard or any other inputs. They typically also receive the corresponding touch information like the x, y corrdinates, etc.

I think the onClickListener would be appropriate for your application, if you are not using more complex inputs, like gestures, etc.
