Answers.Text: Not sure why an honest answer merits a downvote; there *is not* a way to do this and that's true. I'm sorry if the answer didn't solve your problem.

Body: <p>With touch screen E Ink Kindle devices, is there some way to trigger the back button / action without having to tap twice (i.e. once to trigger the top menu and then again to press the back button)?  I'm not referring to flipping back a page but rather the back button itself which is useful when jumping back to where you were before pressing a link.  I'm using the Voyage but I think if there is an answer it may apply to Paperwhite and the regular Kindle touch too.</p>

  But I do not think Amazon provides any way to go back with just one tap (they could implement using a particular corner in future perhaps).
