Thank you for making EinkBro -- such a great app that makes my device a hundred times more useful! A couple questions I haven't been able to find answers for yet:

- I'd like to hide both toolbar and navigation button when reading, but am not sure how to get the toolbar back when I need it. I checked the multi-touch gestures, but unfortunately there is no option to show the toolbar when swiping with two fingers. Is there another way? If not, how about adding "show toolbar" as a multi-touch swipe option?

- Is there a way to navigate backward and forward in the browser history when toolbar and navigation button are both hidden? I tried the usual swipe from the edge but that does not seem to work. Worth adding?

- EinkBro uses the custom font for the reader mode, but seems to ignore font settings defined in website CSS (i.e. font-family). I have set Bookerly as the desired font-family in my web-based RSS reader, and other browsers display it correctly, while EinkBro seems to ignore it. Known issue?

Thanks again for creating this app. So awesome.
