Is there anyway to quickly switch between sets of cross bars without holding R1 plus D - pad?
No. But with use of the shared hotbar (l2+r2) you shouldn't need to switch much at all. This allows for 32 total actions. I have mine set so holding the two will bring up set 2.
Can't edit on iPhone, it's called expanded not shared.
looks like there may be a way to change hotbars with text commands in macros like we could in XI. Haven't looked into it though, just glanced at the list here:

There is a hotbar section, and just past halfway down you see commands for /hotbar and /crosshotbar that may give you a means to change them. Something like the old SMN macros in XI where you have a macro that summons an avatar and then flipped you to a book/macro bank for that avatar--the trick was you needed to root some macro slots into navigation within each bank like a return to the main "menu" book/bank and such.
Under Character Configuration > Hotbar Settings > Cross Tab, enable "Enable Customization for when weapon is sheathed" & "Enable Customization for when weapon is drawn", and for both, check Hotbar 1 & Hotbar 2. The rest should be unchecked. This will allow swapping between hotbars 1 & 2 by tapping the R1 button.
Should look something like this:

And yes the term "enable customization" instead of "Allow R1 to cycle thru only the following hotbars" is confusing..
