Android - Feature requests for e-ink screen platforms
I'm on a Boox Tab X C (Android with an e-ink screen), and using the Zotero app. There are two quality-of-life features that would improve the app immensely.
- Add an option to remove the page-turning animation. For any e-ink screen, this is very choppy and leaves smudges of the page across the screen
- Lower the threshold for swiping to turn pages. Right now, when I swipe with my thumb, half the time it just animates the page moving up a bit and back. This is quite frustrating, and I have to really exaggerate the swipe movement to turn the page
- Add an option to activate tap to turn pages. This would also alleviate the above issue
Thank you! Great job otherwise with the app so far.

adamsmithTap on the right marginof the screen turns the page. That's what I use on my Boox

MathiasHudobaIt doesn't work on mine, and I don't see any option in the settings to enable this. Maybe it's a Tab X C specific problem?

adamsmithIt doesn't work when you're zoomed in. That's a current limitation of the Android app, I understand they're working on making this worked in zoomed mode too. If that's not it, I wouldn't know where to look, though I thought boox uses the same modified OS on all its tablets
