You steer a snake around the board collecting apples. Every apple makes it longer, and the longer it is the less room you have. Walls and your own body end the round.
On a phone you steer by swiping or with an on-screen D-pad โ even a short, slow swipe is picked up properly.

Run along the edges instead of criss-crossing the middle โ that keeps an escape route open. And plan your path to the next apple before you reach it: the snake grows exactly when things get tight.
