Describe the feature you want
When playing a video full screen, there are 3 main controls - Previous, Play/Pause and Next. These are mostly redundant unless you're watching multiple videos in a playlist. In fact, the Next button is available but does nothing when watching a single video, and the Previous button goes to the start of the video (and is very easy to accidentally hit).
Spotify and some other audiobook/podcast apps have a nicer -15sec/+15sec control instead which is great for long durations.
Another option could be to make the buttons fast forward/rewind when holding them down.

Additional context
How will you/everyone benefit from this feature?
Less accidentally starting my video over, way easier way to rewind a video by a small amount instead of having to drag the "scrubber" inaccurately. Better use of screen real estate, more useful functions!
