here is my take at this: My intuitive attempt to go back to the dive list on iOS was to pinch as I see the dive details page as a zoomed in version of the dive list, so zooming out by pinching should bring you back (as it does for many other apps like for example the image viewer).



This patch is my attempt at implementing this. I should say I have 0 experience with QML and (worse) I currently cannot build for my phones, I can only run the mobile application on the desktop where my mouse for obvious reasons has no pinch action. So, all I can say is that it compiles and does not (as opposed to my earlier attempts) throw error messages on running.

In a similar vain, on iOS the natural gesture of deleting a dive would be to swipe that dive to the left in the dive list.

Best
Robert
