FYI, Lemmy and Kbin are Progressive Web Apps, meaning you can install them as regular apps to your phone's home screen
On iOS: tap the share button in browser => add to home screen On Android: tap the 3 dot menu button in browser => tap "install" or "add to home screen"

That’s what I assumed as well, but Kbin won’t swipe….
At least for lemmy it works in my iphone - i dont use the kbin variant unfortunately…
Probably you could try to zoom out of the page before the swipe… Sometimes, if a website is wider than the screen, the back swipe does not work correctly
Swiping works for me on iPhone. My only issue is there's no way to refresh the page from the PWA on iPhone (to my knowledge).
Posted from kbin.social after "Add to home screen"
For me, I can refresh the entire PWA app on my iphone by hitting the hamburger menu on top left, then the home icon on the little sub menu bar top right. But you're right this doesn't help if you're inside a thread or anywhere else. Is there a gesture to do this maybe? Similar to the back button being a left swipe?
iPhone with iOS 16 and swiping does not work on kbin PWA but does on other PWA apps. Zooming doesn’t change the situation
On Android, you can configure an edge swipe to mean "back". Though android also has a back button built into the ui, so it doesn't really mean much.
