Forward gesture/to the top gesture

Can we have a 'forward' gesture like we now have a back gesture.

 

If you are browsing a website and you go back one too many pages it would be good to swipe in from the opposite side of the screen to go forward a page.

 

Also it would be good to be able to tap the status bar to scroll back to the top of a webpage or an app rather than having to scroll manually back to the top or hit a little arrow at the bottom on the page to go to the top of the page.

Hey @AEl 

 

That might be difficult :thinking-face:

Device would have to analyze each swipe from the middle of the screen to the edge of it and decide if that was meant for "forward" gesture or another action.

"Back" gesture is a little more universal (as it originates from the edge of the screen).

 

I understand it would have been limited to browser only, but there might be some difficulties with either how the device would recognize that gesture or with it's performance (there might be a small delay, so the device decides if you have used a gesture or another action).

 

I will share that with the development team, so they can take a look at it.
