This example uses the cooperative value for the gestureHandling option to control the panning and scrolling behavior of a map when viewed on a mobile device.
Read the documentation.
TypeScript/**
* This sample sets the gesture handling mode to 'cooperative',
* which means that on a mobile device, the user must swipe with one
* finger to scroll the page and two fingers to pan the map.
*/

const center = { lat: -25.363, lng: 131.044 };
const zoom = 4;

zoom,
center,
gestureHandling: "cooperative",

declare global {

initMap: () => void;
