How to use the Elf Bottler (with video)

OK, maybe I am just a spazz. Every time I click the Elf Bottler, it puts a window on my screen that reads the same direction. I have to click OK to get rid of the directions window. After that, if I tap the screen, nothing happens. I have kept my finger on the screen, and nothing happens. I have tapped elves and they just bottle like normal.

Do I have my 4th glitch of the game so far? Or am I just totally spazzing out?

Thanks for any response.

Honestly, it just takes a bit of practice. Now that you have the 2nd tab in the top right of the screen with the Elf Bottler, there's no need to hit that again. Just go to an area in your town where you can practice without accidentally tapping a character or building, and just practice this: tap and hold. Try a light touch and different areas on the end of your finger (if needed). On my devices, they require me to tap straight down and close to the screen for better results. If I tap at an angle, the screen seems to slightly shift as I'm holding. When I am close and tap lightly straight down, the screen remains still and then you'll see the "lightning".

Hope this made sense.
