Is there a back button for iphone 12 pro max?

Hey i am switching from android

Is there a back button for iphone 12 pro max? I just got this phone. The back gesture for a large for is dumb. U can't realistically go back without loosing grip on your phone cause its so big to the reach the left corner. Can i add a button or change the guesture? I dont get why apply would not have a fix for this. It's so dumb. The back button is used so often. Also can i change the size of the icons and make it smaller? Everything is like huge for no reason.

iPhone 12 Pro Max, 14

You can enable Assistive Touch that will serve (kind of) as back button. Alternatively, you can set Back Tap as Home Button. You can ask Siri ‘Go to Home Screen’.

Use AssistiveTouch on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

I get it. Enable Reachability feature then.

Also, many apps rely on swipe gestures. For instance, in Safari app swipe right from left edge of the screen brings you back to previous page.

I mean. I don’t need to go to the Home Screen. The problem is like using safari. You wanna go back to the previous page. Or you want to go back to the previous page in the app. You can’t unless to reach all the way over. Assistive touch does not have a back option. I tried.
