Answer 1

So, WebView holds each tap event to see if it's a double tap or a touch move event. There is an alternative to binding to touchstart events. If you specify with the viewport meta directive that your WebView shouldn't zoom or scroll, touch events will reach your code immediately (since Gingerbread).

You can find the details on the viewport directive here: http://developer.android.com/guide/webapps/targeting.html
