As an alternative to clicking a check mark, would it be possible to add a swipe feature user interface?

Swipe right can be "Read" and swipe left can be "Skipped" or "Undo".

I tried the Habits app and the Productive app.

Habits uses a check mark. Productive uses a swipe feature.

I found the swipe function more fun, interactive, and engaging compared to pushing a check mark on the phone.
