Pagination and click

OS 15.5
Principle 6.39

I’m trying to create a card style swipe pagination that also has a “next” button and a “dismiss” button. I use horizontal paging for the swipe behavior and connect to “next” button using a tap gesture. However, if I tap “next” and then swipe backward, the buttons no longer work as they are not connected.

Is there an ideal way to set up this type of flow?
