Improving split controls on MCPE

I think we could use an attack and an action button (like LMB and RMB on PC), on Touch controls. It would drastically improve the game experience.

 

This way you won't have to hold the screen to extinguish fire, draw a bow, mine, etc. By removing this delay, the overall gameplay will feel smoother.

When I'm in the nether, a lot of times I just tap the screen when I see fire hoping it will extinguish, and end up burning myself.

    Yes it is such a pain and if they could add buttons to drop and item from your hot bar with a tap and not a really long hold like it is now

    It would also be cool if they added the ability to hold more the a few items in you off hand they could do this by adding two buttons one for each hand in the game

    They could also add in a way to customize where the buttons are on the screen not just how big they are.

    Its so hard to play without a split control.I saw so many player rage quit mcpe pvp for that.But mojang acts like they doesnt care .Probably cause they have a massive community on java edition that they dont need mobile version to be that popular.Well thats so sad but going to uninstall because of it.Thought never gonna say it but buying mcpe on mobile is just a waste of money.RIP mobile players
