This is not the scenario here. Some reading a book is not typing anything (except for a few notes). But I got your point.

That would be great. Thanks.

Edit: I've tested the new control. It worked perfectly! In my case, I changed from 60 to 30.

Not sure if this is the same issue or proper place to post this, but on my iPad when I want to use the e-book viewer it just really doesn't seem to work at all. If I tap on the sides to turn the page it sometimes just goes to another chapter, or skips pages seemingly randomly. I can't scroll it at all either. I've tried adjusting all the settings, using a different browser... anyone else have this issue on iOS?

(this forum) Viewer is about the one that is part of Calibre, not a reading device.

Are you using the Content Server? This was not very clear.

Yes, I was talking about the content server e-book viewer. If this forum/thread is for the app viewer, apologies!

We just need to clarify so the answers make sense.

@zogerol: iOS/Safari is the red-headed step child of browsers. Sadly I no longer have a functioning iOS device to test on, so it's quite possible things arent working well there. However, what you describe sounds like the tap is either hitting a link, in which case it will follow the link, or being mis-interpreted as a vertical swipe.

In either case, try using horizontal swipes to turn pages, they should be more robust.
