In general, we recommend only adding(click)events to elements that are normally clickable. This includesandelements. This improves accessibility as a screen reader will be able to tell that the element is clickable.
However, you may need to add a(click)event to an element that is not normally clickable. When you do this you may experience a300msdelay from the time you click the element to the event firing. To remove this delay, you can add the tappable attribute to your element.
example:
<ion-item tappable (click)= "test()"></ion-item>
