Image controls show when dragging zoomed image by small amount
Really liking the new image settings such as not showing the controls by default. But they kept appearing for me and I couldn’t work out why until just now.
Open an image, zoom in, then pan a small amount. Looks like a small drag is interpreted as a tap, and the controls alternately show / hide.
I’d happily turn the overlay off completely if that was an option; I can’t remember the last time I actually needed them—the close icon isn’t needed with the swipe to dismiss, and you can easily get to save / share by long press after closing. Since I use those so rarely, that would be better UX for me.
Thanks for the feedback. We'll add an option to disable the controls completely in the next TestFlight 👍

We've added an option to disable the controls completely in the latest TestFlight :)
i just want there to be a swipe-away gesture while zooming. needs to happen when we're swiping 'forcefully' well beyond the edge of it.
My preference (which I think I put in the original post) was single tap while zoomed should reset zoom. Then dismiss becomes ‘tap, swipe’ and can be almost instantaneous.
i guess double-tap does it.
im also noting here that the image viewer dismissal is down/up swipe where the rest of the app wants left-edge-to-right swipe
