Tip of the Week: Turn Your iPhone Into an e-Book

Feature request: different previous/next page layout

Hi,

Just a small request: on my iPhone, I currently can tap on the left hand side of the screen for the previous page and on the right hand side for next page. Is there a possibility to add something in the settings which can let the user choose between left/right and top/bottom half (or quarter) of the screen for turning a page. I generally find it easier to just tap anywhere on the bottom of the screen with my thumb when I'm reading and right now I accidentally go back a page quite often. Thanks!

Personally, I almost never go backwards

So I set both left and right side to Page Forward. If for some rare reason I need to go backwards, the swipe works fine.

Awesome tip!

I just tried that and I love it. I didn't know about the swipe control. This works great.

That is a great tip!

That is a great tip!
