I can't access my control Center while I'm using an app

When I'm on my home or lock screen I can swipe up and change the current song or use my calculator, but when I'm in any app, let's say google chrome, I can swipe up and nothing happens so I'll hit the home button and swipe up again and then the control Center comes up. What's wrong here? What can I do? I have a gold Iphone 6. This has been like this since i can remember. I got the phone in August of 2015

iPhone 6, iOS 9.1

Perhaps it is the app itself? I know that if I am using the Kindle Reader app it is difficult to get to the Control Center or the Notification center (from the top) on my iPhone 6. And on my iPad Mini 2 it is almost impossible to swipe from the right hand side and get to the screen for multi-tasking. All I get at first is a small arrow - which I then have to "grab" and drag to get to one of the screens.
