I have tried all the answers! It works on computer but not on mobile.

If you are using a computer, you can try by simulating mobile with the inspector. Here is the button: https://jsfiddle.net/t4ykshst/

#add {
    -webkit-box-sizing: content-box;
    -moz-box-sizing: content-box;
    box-sizing: content-box;
    outline: none;
    cursor: pointer;
    padding: 10px;
    overflow: hidden;
    border: none;
    -webkit-border-radius: 50%;
    border-radius: 50%;
    color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.9);
    text-align: center;
    background: #1abc9c;
    -webkit-box-shadow: 0 4px 3px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
    box-shadow: 0 4px 3px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
}

#add:active {
    opacity: 0.85;
    -webkit-box-shadow: 2px 2px 2px 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
    box-shadow: 2px 2px 2px 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
}
<input type="button" id="add" value="+" title="" style="position: absolute; left: 0px; top: 0px; width: 52px; height: 52px;" />


Solution

  • You can add:

    -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent;
    

    You can also add this to your stylesheets to define it globally:

    input,
    textarea,
    button,
    select,
    a {
        -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent;
    }
