Page turn holding Kobo with left hand - Page 2

I use the second option, then either reach to the middle (I have small hands and can still do this), or do a tiny swipe.

I usually hold my H2O in my left hand, despite being right handed, I use the third option but I almost always swipe. I have fairly long fingers, so cradling my H2O in one hand and using the thumb of that hand to swipe is pretty easy.

The outside border of the screen should be tap to go forwards with the inside being split into backwards and menu areas.

I use touch or swipe to for page turns and it works equally well. Tried and do not like upper, lower tap zones for forward or back page turns. I will hold reader with right or left hand equally. I also use vertical swipes for page turn on Sony readers but Kobo readers will never have this option.

This is similar to how I config alreader and coolreader. The outer borders do a page forward, a backswipe to go back. Easy.
