I switched from a Galaxy S10 to a Pixel 7 and with the new back/home swipe commands instead of the buttons I find that using your swipe to change chapters to go forward or backwards is very hard to get right. I have spent the past few months trying to get it and some days I can do multiple chapter changes and other times I can try for 5 minutes and not get any. Of then when swiping to change chapters I accidentally hit the android back swipe gesture.

This is a very small annoyance however I do think the gesture commands for Android is becoming the normal. I went looking for a setting to see if maybe there were different swipe patterns to change chapters and I did not see any. This might look like swipe from middle of screen to outside of screen or something. I do not think this matters much on reading the Bible but commentaries it does since they do not go to the next chapter when scrolling.

i'm thinking semi-transparent overlay buttons that could be enabled from app preferences, could work. Enabling that setting would disable swipe left/right gesture then.
