P: Mobile: Add swipe between images

In a recent version update on mobile, the ability to swipe between images (in full screen view), went away. Which now, it's incredibly inefficient to click the back arrow to exit full screen view, select the next image, open full screen view, edit, click back, etc, instead of just being able to swipe left and right to navigate through images. Please add this back in.

    it would be nice if we can swipe between photos when you have the photo open ios mobile. Rather than going back to the gallery and having to open another photo to view it

      @Alex37616117jpcu have you enabled the Tech Preview? See the green post at the top of the page.

      I have the same problem since the updates and this is not a fix because we still lost the ability to swipe between photos while editing or in rate/review mode. Not it seems I can only edit or rate/review one photo at a time without going back to the grid and starting over again each time. This is such a massive loss of efficiency it makes me wonder if paying for this is still worth it.

        It seems the latest updates removed the different modes (rate/review, edit, info) and also block the ability we used to have to swipe between photos in any of these modes? Now even with the "early access" feature (doesn't make sense to call an old feature that was taken away "early access" when we want it back) I can only swipe between previews prior to any ratings or editing, then I have to navigate back to the grid, then to the next photo, then back to the grid, etc. 

         

        This completely ruined my workflow and seems bafflingly inefficient. Am I missing these features hidden somewhere else within settings? What could be the justification for making the mobile workflow so much less efficient? I'd drop paying Adobe over this if there isn't a fix because it would render the mobile apps useless for culling and editing more than one photo at a time.
