turning off tooltips ( or other features ) for mobile devices

Is there a way to disable tooltips when users open the website on mobile devices, and only mobile devices?  Maybe there is something I can check to see if the device is, for instance, an iPhone, and disable the features that my users are complaining about on iPhones.

This is one of my ideas for solving the problem I mention in a separate post here.

This might be a short term fix until I can solve it another way, not sure yet.  But seemed like a valid option that someone else must have considered, so thought I would ask the community.
