Description
On mobile, IOS 14 and up (chrome and safari), the slider does not scroll when dragging it.
I have found that the following snippet seems to fix it.
**Fix**
`document.addEventListener("touchstart", () => {}, { passive: false });`
It works by overriding the touchStart event to not be passive, meaning that `e.preventDefault()` can run on this event, which seems to be a requirement for Slick Slider.
I'm not sure if I have missed a less hacky fix for this though. Has any one else solved this?
