Add swiping abilities to the calendar views
There are now swiping options for emails including deleting and flagging messages. However there are not any swiping options for navigating around the calendar.
When you are in the day, week, or month view it would be very helpful to be able to swipe left or right to go forward or backwards. For example if you are in the week view if you swipe to the left it would move to the next week. Swiping to the right would go to the previous week. This would work the same for day or month views.
The current process of clicking on the little arrows to move between weeks is not as natural as swiping.

this is not difficult to implement, why can it not be added. How many votes are required? I have no votes left. Will my votes remain here for the next how many years?

Apparently this has been flagged as PLANNED in this thread as of Dec/2019:

I second this motion! As Mac users we use swipe gestures to navigate everywhere and not having this in Outlook Calendar seems outdated.

I would add that swiping should result in smooth scrolling, rather than jumping between pages. Perhaps a configurable behaviour?

Definitely need this feature!
For Mac users swiping is the way you navigate through almost everything!
