not for me. & that's the same with Kindles also. maybe because a tap takes less pressure or more probably because I can tap with a flat thumb or finger on a large screen area, but with a button I have to have the digit pre-curled above the button, or keep curing / uncurling

i can't play android games that need fast precise screen taps either, a few minute of those can mess my hand up for days. . but I can do sudoko puzzles with slow finger /hand movements.

anything that needs press + drag + let go on a screen is a no go for me. it's the hold down and drag does the damage

with the kindle oasis? which I used to have , there were 3 pressure settings for buttons but I did not get on with any of them
