okay, some updates!!! 🙃

Custom forms mentioned above didn’t quite work for me. But looking around the community I found this gem and that got me thinking: swipe would be so much cooler than a text-only page, so I decided to give it a try.

I wasn’t able to make Swipe work 🤣 I set up everything 1:1 to what Lucas had in his example, but for whatever reason, Glide is just not giving me an option to select the “Swipe” layout. No idea why 🤔

That said, I was able to make my desired functionality work: users can go back and forward in rows without leaving the Detail screen for any specific row, and the “Back” button takes you back to the parent screen. 🔥 🤩

Have to work right not, but I’ll try to outline how I did it later today.

Of course, as it happens, you figure out a solution to one problem, you immediately encounter another 🤣 My original screens had some interactivity related to it:

- Mark as complete
- Add notes.

I would love some ideas on how to bring this functionality to new screens as those are exactly the features my users loved as opposed to the navigation issue I fixed there that was mostly just annoying 🤣
