So, I was scrolling through a thread on mobile device, and accidentally downvoted a post on the way through. Is there a trick to undo an accidental up/downvote? Now that a vote has been registered, I seem only to be able to toggle between +1 and -1 (which is not how arithmetic worked when I went to school....)

What happens if you now try to upvote it?
If that results in an unintentional upvote: that seems better than an unintentional downvote. It may surprise someone but will offend no one. -
@prophanetes I had the same problem, several times. I now try to scroll with my left thumb rather than my right thumb.
My appologies to all affected.

@prophanetes
Hit the downvote button again, and vote should cancel.
It works for me, just tested again on your post, works for both down and upvotes.
What i can't tell is if there is a timer that blocks this after some time. -
@Keneda Yes, thank you! That fixed it. Even after all this elapsed time.
So for those playing at home:
-1 + 1 = 1
-1 + -1 = 0
Simple. ; )
