&gt; Why is the regular swipe from edge of screen to go to the previous screen overridden to move from review to review? (same issue with GMail app though too)<p>I completely share your frustration here.  I actually met a Yelp iOS engineer once and asked them about this.  They said the idea is that it&#x27;s supposed to feel like the way you navigate photos in albums on iOS; their expectation (whoever designs Yelp&#x27;s iOS UX) is that users want to read many reviews and don&#x27;t skim the review previews first to find the ones they like.<p>I showed them how I prefer to browse reviews: skim the previews, find a promising looking one [Yelp review signal&#x2F;noise is <i>terrible</i>], &quot;drill into&quot; it, back out, continue until I&#x27;ve read enough reviews to make a judgment.  They said they understood my POV, but stood by the assertion that most users don&#x27;t use the app this way.  Maybe they have metrics to justify that.
