The team is constantly working on improving the Netflix Game Controller app. At this time, some lag and delays in control responsiveness can occur intermittently. There are several factors that can contribute to this, both real and perceived:

For tap‑to‑pass, a few things can make it feel laggy:

Heavy tapping: Holding slightly longer than a quick tap can cause misreads. Quicker, lighter taps may work better.
Network hiccups: Small connection drops can delay input, so players tap repeatedly and accidentally queue multiple passes.

If any of these happen, try using faster taps and avoid rapid tap‑tap‑tapping; give it a moment before tapping again, and make sure you’re on a strong, stable network.
