Trigger actions to use with touch screen

I've created forms that use the simple form field action of showing a hidden field on mouse up. It works when on a desktop/device using a mouse or touch pad mouse. I realized it was not working on a touchscreen (my phone) even when using the Adobe app. After internet research, I also added the on focus trigger. It's still not working. Everthing I've found online says this should work. I also tried on blur with no luck. What am I missing? Thank you for your help!

It is possible that the trigger is working but the script is not.  Many JavaScripts are not supported on mobile devices, even when using Adobe.

Thank you! That makes sense to my limited understanding of how technology works.
