Welcome to the forums!
I do believe they are working on this, though I could be wrong.

Mobile users can still technically use Turbo Mode by clicking “See Inside”, then “Edit”, then “Turn on Turbo Mode”.

On phones, if you tap and hold on the flag (or on computers, right click), there is a drop-down that shows multiple options, and one of them is “Go”, the same as tapping it. What if there was another option “Turbo Mode”? Then you could easily turn it on without going inside the editor to toggle it.

Support!
This would be RIDICULOUSLY useful, as the current only way to turn on Turbo is by Seeing Inside, which isn't the best…

Support! Some projects require that Turbo Mode is on in order for them to run the best they can.

Turbo mode

Often when I’m on a mobile device I come across projects that need to be played in turbo mode for them to work properly. But the only thing is… there’s not an easy way to turn on turbo mode on a mobile device. Which is why I’m here to suggest adding an easier way to turn on turbo mode for mobile users.

Suggestions on how to turn on turbo mode:

- Double click the green flag

- A button next to the green flag, or even beside the stop sign

- Holding the green flag for a moment

I believe that adding an easier way to turn on turbo mode for mobile devices will be a really neat way to experience projects in a different way without having to go onto a computer to play the projects, or going inside the project to turn turbo mode on.

Thanks for reading this!

You can turn turbo mode on by clicking See Inside, then going up to the top bar and clicking Edit > Turn on Turbo Mode, though I do think it would be nice for there to be a more convenient way to turn on turbo mode for mobile devices without having to open the code of the project.

I don’t think double clicking is a good way since some projects may detect that. Holding would be good though.

I didn't know that, thanks for pointing that out! Yeah, I turned turbo mode on through a mobile device, and I realized it's a little harder to do that than it is on a computer…

It's not really worth wasting one minute just for this, and it can be quite annoying to do this everytime…

Yes, I agree with this solution.

I support! There are some games that even work on mobile, but need Turbo Mode. However, I do not support double-clicking the Green Flag, as there is a project that you have to click the green flag multiple times.

Support. The other ways are too long, and some people might not think they exist.

I want to make it so you can turn on Turbo Mode without having to hold a key that is not available on, e.g. an iPhone 7 Plus.

A tap and hold may not work on certain touchscreens, though. On an iPad with iPadOS 13.3, holding it for more than a certain number of seconds makes the image show as big with the background being darker, so that when you click on it, it exits out of the whole project and replaces the page with the image. I think the way this would work is by having two images between the flag and stop sign, a gray and yellow lightning bolt for turbo and regular mode. Gray means regular mode, and yellow means Turbo Mode. When you click, the modes and image shown toggle between the two.
