How to use back function one hand?

Hello

I want to use back function in apps with one hand. I can't swipe from left edge of the phone because I can't reach out to it with my finger. I need some way do this. Maybe some app can do this? It's a really problem for me. On Android there was a separate button for this.

iPhone 13 Pro Max, iOS 16

Thank you for the answer. I know about this function and this is uncomfortably. Instead of one action, you have to do 2 or 3. I cannot believe that there are no other options.

Hey GuitarFan03,


There are some accessibility features that may help with this. Reachability will lower the top of the screen and could help. Here's more information: Reach the top of the iPhone screen with one hand - Apple Support
