Why is tap() deprecated?

[Ryan_Griffin]

I've searched, but not found the answer.

Why is the AppiumDriver class' tap() method deprecated?
What should I use instead?(This is in Java).

[Aleksei]

choose any:

 new TouchAction((MobileDriver) driver).tap(element or x,y or element+offset x,y).perform();
 new TouchAction((MobileDriver) driver).press(element or x,y or element+offset x,y).waitAction(50).release().perform();
 element.click();
