Oh I completely agree! But we only have the limitations Apple gave us unless a developer is able to do some magic with a tweak. Luckily I only have 7 devices and 3 of which are lights and show up first. The other 4 are 2 Apple TV’s and 2 HomePod Minis so they usually end up at the end of the list as I don’t usually control those much from my phone.

Haha. Right! It is by Apple’s design :p

Yeah. Same. This would actually work but I cannot find the back gesture.

I have one of the pop socket wallets. I can comfortably fit 4 cards in there. Cash I’ll keep in either the opposite pocket, or if really necessary in my phone case.

It’s the app. Happens to me everytime (iPhone 12)

Same issue here

Top heavy aside, I definitely agree.

Hey. I tried this in Safari but I can only go back if I start from the left edge. Forward from right edge. Tried it in Music app but it is same.

I’m not sure. I do the same thing at least once a day as well. But I haven’t looked to see. I’ll have to take a scroll through the settings and see.

Do you know if it's possible to disable this? I'm constantly swiping notifications away on my Lock Screen and after the second or third one I always seem to trigger the camera by accident.

There's literally a camera button in the bottom right of the Lock Screen! I'd much prefer to just use that and not swipe.

Had same issue with the 16.3 version of iOS. 16.3.1 fixed it. It was causing problems on both my phone and messages on my Mac.

Where is this setting in the assisted touch menu for back button? I see gestures but i cant use those as a replacement for back swipe

Swop down is just as good as swiping left.

No, this gentleman is a bruh

I find that it works, but the weather and radar are almost never accurate lol

Turn your phone on/off then disable/enable iMessage. Your phone’s system needs a second to reconnect to the database/syncing issue.

My sister and I always have this issue when we get new phones 🤷🏻‍♀️

Except that I have done it with one hand, multiple times. I don’t need to swipe across the entire display. A suck single handed flick takes me back. I’ve tried a few other apps and they behave similarly. I think people are making a bigger deal out of the forward and back gestures than what’s reality.

You are in my hood. My weather app looks the same. Lol

I just carry another wallet if I know I’ll be in a situation where more cards might be needed.

For example, when I’m traveling I’ll carry my minimal but still capacious wallet for my various credit and insurance cards.

When I go to work though, all I need is my drivers license, work ID badge and my debit card. Perfect for my MagSafe wallet, and my other cards are available via Apple Pay.

It’s not about the swipe movement.

It’s about your hand placement. If you have a Pro Max phone and use your phone with your right hand, it’s nearly impossible to take your thumb all the way across the very wide phone to the left just to swipe to go back.

It’s easier to do it with two hands or if you’re left handed.

On Android you can swipe left or right and this it makes it much easier.

This is one of the things I miss everytime I switch back and forth from one to another.

I didn’t. I was able to go back from the right side of my iPhone’s display. Just a quick flick to the right on the right side of my iPhone’s display. I didn’t have to reach or anything, just a quick flick without reaching.

I had the same issue with my 11 pro

But you still have to reach the other side of the screen.

I’m actually okay with the photos, I was more talking about the management iOS offers you. I hate how my photos are no longer separated by where they came from, e.g. separate politics into Camera Roll, Downloads, Apollo, etc. It’s all just dumped into Recent now which is the worst when trying to find a specific photo
