title: Cordova swipe event detection options for Android, iOS and Windows tablets
body: <p>I'm in search of something that I can use to detect up/down, left/right swipes on android, apple and windows tablets. </p>
  
  <p>So far I've come across some really good ones that work on android/apple (discussed here <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2264072/detect-a-finger-swipe-through-javascript-on-the-iphone-and-android?rq=1">Detect a finger swipe through JavaScript on the iPhone and Android</a>) </p>
  
  <p>They mention that jQueryMobile and Hammer.js have issues with Android but that can be fixed with changing thresholds mentioned later in that discussion.</p>
  
  <p>I found another discussion mentioning that jQueryMobile can be used with Cordova but needs "some special shim" to make it work, but I'm not experienced enough to know how that would work.</p>
  
  <p>Does anyone know of other options that could be used and is compatible with all 3 platforms mentioned?</p>
  
  <p>(We're using Node.js, durandel, knockout and a few others, not angular or xamarin)</p>
