Apps Difference between setOnClickListener and setOnTouchListener?

[Irrelephant]

This might be a dumb question. I don't own any phone with the Android OS so there's no way for me to test this, but I figured since they're touchscreen I would use setOnTouchListener, but at the same time, setOnClickListener seems to make sense. Can I use either one?

There is a subtle difference.

onTouch gives you a chance for something to respond before the view does.
onClick is fired after the view responds

in case you dont know of this heres the complete Android API

If you just want to handle a tap on the screen you should use the onClickListener because some phones might not have touch and the onClickListener also reacts to the normal button press.
