Steps to reproduce

  1. Open ebook (epub in this case)
  2. Swipe left or right
  3. Observe skipping one page past the next or previous page

Expected behaviour

  • Pages should swipe left or right by one page at a time, not two

Actual behaviour

  • Pages swipe left or right by two pages at a time - makes it very difficult to just go one page at a time

Environment data

  • Android App?
  • iOS App?

Android Issue

Android version: 12

Duplicate of https://github.com/advplyr/audiobookshelf-app/issues/802, looks like it has resurfaced

Is this happening with specific epub or you can reproduce on many of your epubs?

It seems to be any epubs so far...

I've also noticed (hopefully this makes sense) that if I swipe from the middle of the screen left or right to the opposite edge, two pages are turned. if I swipe from the left or right quarter of the screen, through the centre, but before leaving the opposite quarter, only one page is turned. Is that an intentional behaviour not realised, or accidentally enabled?

It's as though the screen is divided into vertical quarters, and a swiping behaviour is available that will swipe one page or two pages depending on how you swipe - although useful, it's not the easiest to navigate, especially if you don't know it's active. 😄

Can reproduce, a swipe across the full screen turns 2 pages, one across only half the screen turns one page

I am having same issue on Android 14 with 0.9.73, swiping will do either 1 or 2 pages depending how you swipe.

Would be nice to have tap to change page, rather than swiping.
