Use keyboard keys to turn pages in Android app?

Hello all!

I'm using the Logos Android app and prefer to have the text set to pages rather than scrolling as I read. However, in my use case it would also be super handy to be able to turn those pages via a keyboard key rather than poking at the screen.

Is there currently a keyboard shortcut in the app to do this? I messed with a fairly full bluetooth keyboard and couldn't find anything that did that. If not, do you suppose it would be possible to add this functionality in? It seems like two standard options would be with to use the up (back) and down (next) arrow keys or the volume keys. Both of those options are present in the Amazon Kindle app for instance.

For my case, either one would work fine. But, it seems like the volume key option might be more universally applicable across devices if people wanted this functionality, even in the iOS world.

Thanks for taking a few minutes to read through this. If you have any work-around thoughts on how I might be able to accomplish my keyboard page turning goal, I would greatly appreciate it.

Blessings!

Tim
