How can I use this on a tablet? #12

For a while now I've been "manually" exploring the idea of ​​"consuming" our notes. Today, we consume them tiktok-style on our cellphone or tablet, why not do the same with our Obsidian notes? I found your plugin and it works OK on the computer (I set up CTRL+arrows), but how can I transfer this use to an android tablet, i.e. navigate from one note to another just by swiping my fingers, tiktok-style? Is that possible?

Great suggestion. This would make browsing around between notes a bit easier on mobile devices.

Currently I use an Obsidian Templater template for my daily notes to generate navigational links (See GitHub: Obsidian Templater Templates)

So far I haven't found any useful documentation on implementing custom gestures for the mobile app. I only found an older plugin implementing two finger swipe navigation here: https://github.com/liamcain/obsidian-swipe-navigation However, a quick test on reimplementing this plusin shows it only works on the desktop app.

Note that the Obsidian mobile app already uses swipe gestures extensively.

  1. Single swipe will open left/right side menu
  2. Two finger swipe will navigate forward/backward

Perhaps they restricted changing this behaviour on the mobile app, or I missed something. Feel free to share any other ideas or suggestions.
