Does hover state work on mobile?
There are no mouse devices on mobile, so users don't have the luxury of using hover effects. Using a hover effect on mobile apps causes buttons to stay stuck in the hovered state when tapped. This stickiness not only confuses users, but it frustrates them when they're forced to double-tap buttons to initiate an action.
Why Hover is not working in mobile view?
Usually, the hover pseudo-class does not respond accordingly on touch screens. The scrolling behavior in smartphones is different from dragging a cursor using a mouse. Thus, the hover behavior is not available on touch screen devices.
Does hover work in touch screen?
As you know, :hover behavior doesn't exist on touch screen devices. So when you design a responsive website, you should carefully plan when and where to use :hover interactions. Simple links that open some URL will loose their :hover effect on some touch screen devices.
