 Description   

The problem is that, for example, you are mining something, and then if you move your tool away from the blocks while holding, the tool will be still moving either if there is no block to mine(like breaking air, i mean the mining animation when the hand moves faster, NOT THE PUNCHING ANIMATION). Also when you are mining, while tapping and holding if you change to another block it will stop mining the block, but 2 secs after will mine again, in fact you cant punch the air, thats why the delay while mining.
NOTE: Happens on all devices
UPDATE: I just tested in on split controls and it happens the same with the touch controls.

Fixed because bubble now goes wherever your finger goes. If this behavior changes I will reopen

It happens to me a lot, and it's very annoying.

Confirmed - MCPE 0.10.5 on Samsung Galaxy S4 Android 4.4.2.

Also unsure if it's a bug or a feature.

Confirmed – Minecraft PE 0.9.5

Not sure if it's a bug, but I experience it as well.

Still happens in 0.9.0 build 1, and also, I noticed before that while mining blocks about 5 blocks away, they get destroyed much faster, and if you move in some direction while mining, blocks will continually destroy very fast.

Yes

Yeah I just posted a similar problems but more detailed. I am having the same problem. Also there is an block collection bug too. Look at blocks when you collect them, they act like they are dissapearing.

Fiti Ball, your issue is different, not a duplicate, just look at the title .

Affects HTC One running 4.3 also.

This also happens without split controls.

Comment by Justin Womack [ 02/Oct/13 ]

Yea this is really annoying especially when breaking leaf blocks because every time you break a block that is in front of an air block it keeps delaying the block breaking speed to break the next block!😡

MCPE-5353 was closed as a dupe of this, but as noted in said ticket - this affects the android XO tablet as well.

Confirmed for iOS iPad 2.
