I have a screen where users can switch between tabs via swiping back and forth. In each tab, it has a list of items. Recently I implemented a gesture handler for that list (so list can have more optons, but hidden initailly) and now it's a lack in user experience since both, top navigation (tabs) and the list has the same gesture behaviours. Please refer to the image for more info.
So I am stuck in this and seeking help from you guys. If you have any advices, let me know.
I think the solution is to understand that although the gesture is the same, the functionality is different. The first is a Swipeable Menu with hidden tabs and the second is a Swipeable List with hidden options.
In other words, the first one is a Carousel and the second a list with a swipe functionality.
While in the list it's easily deductible for the user that the number of options is minimal, in the menu the number of items is unpredictable, it can be 3 or n-items.
Adding a dot indicator at the menu can solve several of these problems:
