I don't know which genius at #Google thought it was a good idea that swiping the right side of the screen on #Android goes 'Back'

It's so sensitive that I accidently go back several times a day. What's the gesture to go forward? Who knows?!

You can disable swiping actions, but that disables everything and swiping from the left of the screen to go back is actually useful (and the same as iPhone) and never accidentally triggered.

@matt I use only gesture navigation in Android, so swipe from right is more useful for me when I keep phone in right hand (most of the time).

@matt It should be configurable yeah. I personally don't have this problem BUT I do notice when I hand my phone to others that they need to be careful to not touch the sides
