That’s pretty much the standard.
- On iPhones and iPads, swipe from the left to go back. In a book on such a device, swipe from the right to go forward.
- On eReaders, particularly Kindles, tap on the right side to go forward; tap on the left side to go back.
- On Android with gestures enabled, swipe from the left side to go back. Or… swipe from the right side to go back. Counter intuitive but apparently at least one person uses that.
Assuming OP has standard gestures enabled, they could still swipe from the left side.
I didn’t say it wasn’t convenient. I said it was counter intuitive.
