VoiceOver Gesture For Quickly Jumping to Bottoms?

So, I am right now working through having lots and lots of photos described by AIRA.

I would like to start from photo 1 in my Recents album, going one photo at a time. However, the AIRA app lists the photos from most recent to earliest and there is no way to set them the opposite way. There is also no scroll bar to the right of the screen. If I merely scroll down using three-finger swipe, I would have to do that 100 times or more to get down to the very bottom of my photos every. single. time.

So, finally, my question is: Is there a VoiceOver gesture to allow one quickly to jump down to the bottom of a list like this?

Don't know about this app but this is the default gesture to jump straight to the last item or bottom of the screen. Tap the top of the screen with four fingers and you'll jump to the first item or the top. You can now assign your own commands/tasks to each gesture, speaking of which, doing that for four-finger single taps appears to be problematic.

Hi there. Correct me if I’m wrong. But there was a gesture where you slide down with 2 fingers,but as of IOS16.5, that gesture has been broken. But if anyone else can find a workaround, that would be much appreciated. Hope that helps.

Well, swiping down with two fingers is the "read all" command, so should let you hear everything on the current screen that is detected and can be read out/reported.

Try playing with the date range.
I tried the four finger tap at the bottom and it went to the bottom of the page I was still looking at 2011
So I went to play with the date range and I was able to go to years went to this year And back and I was back to today at the bottom of the list
that might work and then if you want to jump to the top the four finger tapping fine, but I usually put my finger up where the status bar is and double tap on one finger and that does the same trick

You can assign the four finger swipe down to go to the last item and four finger swipe up to go to the first item. Those gestures are not taken up so use them. I have those set to next and previous heading currently.

Yeah but in that case you will have two of your available gestures assigned to tasks already performed by other gestures, and you will have two less total gestures to perform different tasks.

You can touch near the bottom of the screen with four fingers. Also, you can do a three-finger swipe up to quickly scroll through your list of photos.
