Bringing back slide over with a swipe from the right side of the screen works fine for me except in safari where instead it reads it as jumping one page forward (after I went back one or multiple pages).
This is super annoying since I can‘t find a way to differentiate the two gestures. Nor can I find a place to turn off the gestures for safari.
Any ideas to solve this issue?
iPad Pro, iPadOS 13
Well to hide the slide over window I swipe to the right starting the gesture at the left edge of the slide over window. Using the drag-bar works too. Both ways hide the window.
For exposing the window again while in any other app than safari I swipe left from the right edge of the screen and it exposes the slide over window.
If I slide left from the right side of the screen when in safari, instead of exposing slide over, safari goes a page forward.
In other words: I hide slide over, then go one or more pages back in safari, then want to bring out slide over again but only move forward in safari again. I have to switch to a different app, bring out slide over, then switch back to safari... which is cumbersome to do.
EDIT: I just found out that if I only swipe a tiny bit left, then an arrow appears and if I then drag that arrow out, the slide over window appears without safari changing page.

You posted this - just as I was adding the same comment🙂
Are you using the small grey drag-bar - that is placed at the centre of the slide out window - to hide or expose the window?
How can I bring back slide over while in Safari on the iPad?
