Why on God’s green earth can I not have an #iPhone interface that works?

To say that Apple’s “gestures” suck is entirely too kind. They are a fundamentally broken idea anyway, but that gestures have regions and therefore that a gesture may mean any of three different things, makes my phone desperate–and I do mean desperate–to do anything other than what I’m telling it to do.

I’m seeing the behavior consistently, regardless of app. It’s just wrong.

Do you have one of the older iPhones that had “3D Touch”? That did some weird stuff with gestures, like if you swiped with enough pressure it would switch apps.

No, this is a 14. I never heard of “3D Touch” but it sounds like it would be completely unusable for me.
