- sgillen 8y agoWhat browser are you using? in safari the back button worked fine for me.
- arkades 8y agoUsing this on Safari on iOS: Every time I tried to swipe Back I would briefly see the HN page, and then it would reload the demo page. It wouldn’t let me swipe Back to HN. Aaaand my interest in this is gone.
