# onTapGesture(count:perform:) Adds an action to perform when this view recognizes a tap gesture. ``` nonisolated func onTapGesture(count: Int = 1, perform action: @escaping () -> Void) -> some View ``` ## Parameters `count` The number of taps or clicks required to trigger the action closure provided in `action`. Defaults to `1`. `action` The action to perform. ## Discussion Use this method to perform the specified `action` when the user clicks or taps on the view or container `count` times. > Note: If you create a control that’s functionally equivalent > to a ``doc://com.apple.SwiftUI/documentation/SwiftUI/Button``, use ``doc://com.apple.SwiftUI/documentation/SwiftUI/ButtonStyle`` to create a customized button > instead. In the example below, the color of the heart images changes to a random color from the `colors` array whenever the user clicks or taps on the view twice: ``` struct TapGestureExample: View { let colors: [Color] = [.gray, .red, .orange, .yellow, .green, .blue, .purple, .pink] @State private var fgColor: Color = .gray var body: some View { Image(systemName: "heart.fill") .resizable() .frame(width: 200, height: 200) .foregroundColor(fgColor) .onTapGesture(count: 2) { fgColor = colors.randomElement()! } } } ```  --- Copyright © 2026 Apple Inc.
