iOS17 Messages swipe back to list

I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.... in Messages on iOS 16 and before, couldn't you swipe right anywhere on the left side of the screen to get back to the main list? In iOS 17, I have to reach all the way to the top-left arrow to go back, a more daunting task on my new larger screen. Absolute torture! Or, am I missing something?

That gesture is working on my phone. Maybe try restarting your phone and see if that helps.
- Works for me too. Do a full reboot (volume up volume down then hold the wake button on the right.
- Ah, that worked! Thank you, I should have thought of that.
  
  Shouldn’t have to, apple’s really traded “it just works” for the features they’ve been adding.
I can swipe left to return to the list of messages just fine on my phone.
You can’t swipe right if the keyboard is up. If you have the full-screen message view, you can swipe - but if the keyboard is up you have to use the arrow.

As far as I remember, it’s always been like that.
