Hi everyone, I need help with navigation on my app. Here’s the flow I’m working on: The user scrolls down the home screen (image attached: “home”), reading the titles of the latest topics. When they click on a specific topic (image attached: “Bear hugs gone too far”), they are taken to the topic …

Tried that but it doesn’t work. Thanks anyway, @merefield !

Call me confused but doesn’t your browser have a back button? I just tested on my iPhone in Safari and Chrome and the back buttons take me right back to where I was in the topic list page. The swiping left and right to go back and forward respectively (like what Robert mentioned above) also works.…

sorry for not giving the full context: my discourse community is embedded in our mobile app…maybe that’s why there’s no back button and the swiping doesn’t work?

So that’s your problem :slight_smile: Rather unnecessary too (at least on Android) as it has excellent support for PWAs natively (one of the reasons I switched from Apple and their dragging feet) Discourse is a PWA out of the box :rocket: Just install the website.

Hi there. As I don’t control this component, you will have to make this request in the component’s topic itself. Thanks!

Sorry I don’t know android apps well, but is this not a back button? [A smartphone screen displays a conversation with a chatbot, emphasizing the "Bookmark" feature. (Captioned by AI)]
