***Double Tapping to Play a Card***

Double tapping to play a card is supported and can be enabled in the options menu. Once enabled, tapping a card once will select it, and tapping it a second time will play it. This feature allows you to change selected cards if you accidentally select the wrong one. Simply tap the correct card, and the first card will be unselected. Tap the second card again to confirm playing it.
