Hi Raul, I agree the Focus displays are working beautifully in iOS.
reverse panning is a feature of the screen reader's UI. For example, JAWS 
offers it in Braille Settings, but iOS does not.
I guess it could be offered in the firmware potentially, but then you get into 
a situation where if it can be adjusted in both places, it can be quite 
difficult to troubleshoot.
