MN bookmarks on the iPad

My laptop has been hijacked by DD and is currently about 200 miles away at Exeter university, so I'm having to do all my MNing on the iPad.

On the laptop, you can get the bookmark link by hovering over the right hand side of a post, but on the iPad, as I had to discover by accident, you have to touch a link in the post or on the header bar.

If it's a link in the text, it's annoying if you actually want to follow the link, because you touch it and all that happens is that the bookmark link appears. To get to the linked page, you have to hold the link, which is annoying, (especially if you hold it a nanosecond too long & the ipad's drop down menu appears) but manageable.

But if there's no link in the text & you have to use the header bar links (poster's name, report, message poster etc, I'm finding that these links are much more trigger happy and open a new page straight away with the report message box or the poster's profile, or whatever.

I'm not sure if you can actually do anything about this, but you might like to know why you are getting a lot of aborted 'report poster' messages from me....
