This happens on android too
Can confirm on iOS and iPadOS. Affects versions 1.21.50 and 1.21.51 Hotfix.
I believe this is a side effect of the action buttons' lack of dead zones. That may have been intentional and makes sense on paper, however (due to the way some people play, eg claw method) it can lead to 2 camera inputs, which can in-turn lead to erratic camera movements.
I've attached an example clip of the erratic camera movement, but I had "hide HUD" switched on because I was recording the clip for a project. If I manage to catch it happen during normal game play again, I will upload it here.
A simple solution is to allow players to toggle on/off the dead zones for these buttons in the touch settings.
I caught it on camera: camera_snap - clip.mov
