mistouch
Finger slip error
A mistouch is an accidental or erroneous keystroke or screen tap—pressing the wrong button, hitting an adjacent key, or tapping unintentionally: Sorry, that text was a mistouch.
The term appears most often in gaming and mobile contexts, where a single mistouch can cost you a move or send an unintended message.
