Better way to change gradient colours?

[RocketBoots]

So I have a gradient, and I want to simply use an exact copy of an existing colour on it. Ideally I’d just like to be able to quickly drag the colour swatch onto the gradient - simple, job done! However, as the colour I want to use does not appear in "Recent Colours" or 'Quick Colours" the current method required is to select colour picker, drag it over the area of the gradient I want (the big circular swatch right next to the eye dropper icon isn’t pickable on iOS ), attempt to pick the colour (this is fiddly and often isn’t an exact match), hope I’ve got it, and finally click the colour swatch next to the icon to apply it to the gradient. This is an even longer process if there is another shape above the one with the gradient.

Is there a better, faster way to do this that I'm missing?

Hi RocketBoots,

As far as I'm aware there is no faster or better way to do this I'm afraid.

Thanks
