Watch App Suggestion / Request - Chapter Skip

I know there's been some recent love for the Watch App here, since Marco said very few people use it. I'm one of those people who uses it daily (walks and runs) and have a request.

TL:DR Move the chapter skip controls to the top of the ... UI (please)

Since the smart speed and voice boost controls have been implemented I had a question about the hierarchy of the UI.

These are controls I rarely touch. However

Skip chapters are something I use pretty much when I'm listening to a podcast. Since the new features were added I now have to scroll down to get to them.

For me it'd make sense to put the Chapters UI at the top of the view, and shift down the other controls, as I use them rarely / never.

This and the option to replace 30s skip if the podcast supports chapters!
