IPhone reachability

Why iPhone reachability is so

bad if you are right handed, I

don't understand why there is no

option to go back from the

middle or right side to the left

when going back w that is the

main reason why I bought 13 pro

instead of 13 pro max?

IPHONE Gestures after using Iphone i feel it is much more complicated and even after its compact size we need to engage both of our hand to operate. Example if someone use their right hand to operate the phone so that person need to engage its left hand to swipe back, i mean what is the harm in giving an option to swipe from right as well as left both side, (will it cause any security issue) also the swipe from left do not work in all applications, in few apps you are forced to go back form the top left corner, i mean why so much of pain. can someone have solution or new IOS will bring this freedom.

Swipe from right to left to return/go back "There is an action in iphone where you swipe from left of the screen to the right and you go back, is there any chance I could swap this/or activate also a swipe from right to the left to do the same ?" This was posted by another user in 2021 with only one reply from Apple linking to accessibility options which do not have this feature. If this was possible I, and I'm sure many others, would change from Android to iPhone. Anyone aware of any developments or workarounds which would make this feature work?

Right and Left skewed keyboard is available in keyboard settings unless you have selected the zoomed display, if that is what ypu meant.

Most people use both thumbs or both hands for typing

No that’s not what I meant,

I use phone most of the time with one hand and everything is easy if you are left handed I don't understand why there is no option for right handed
