PlayerSettings.iOS.deferSystemGesturesMode

Description

Defer system gestures until the second swipe on specific edges.

Select one or more edges that users must swipe twice to enact system gestures.

On iOS devices, users can perform actions by swiping from different edges of the screen. For example, you can navigate home by swiping up from the bottom of the screen. This can cause issues with games that use swiping for interaction.

Use PlayerSettings.iOS.deferSystemGesturesMode to control which screen edge gestures the system waits for before responding to the second swipe. The system ignores the first swipe to help prevent unintentional actions in the app. The iOS Human Interface Guidelines don't recommend turning on this setting, as it could confuse users.

Note: If you enable PlayerSettings.iOS.hideHomeButton, deferSystemGesturesMode has no effect because an iPhone's Home button is a system gesture.
