Serious question: when some app sends you somewhere after a click/tap on iOS, but doesn't leave you the breadcrumb back link in the upper left corner, how do you go back? Is there no shortcut or gesture? Drives me crazy I can't figure it out every time I grab my son's or my parents' phone to help them with something.
- K7PJP 3y agoTo bring up App Switcher, swipe up from the bottom of the screen, then pause in the center of the screen. Then, to browse the open apps, swipe right, then tap the app you want to use. https://support.apple.com/guide/iphone/switch-between-open-apps-iph1a1f981ad/16.0/ios/16.0 https://support.apple.com/guide/iphone/switch-between-open-a... You can also quickly switch between open apps on an iPhone with Face ID by swiping right or left along the bottom edge of the screen. But try App Switcher first, it'll provide clearer orientation.
- interpol_p 3y agoJust a note that apps are not responsible for that breadcrumb and have no control over it (if you are meaning the little one that lives in the status bar?). The OS adds that in cases where apps link out to other apps To go back in all cases you can swipe the home indicator to the right to go back to the previous app you were in. Or you can fling it up to about half way to see all previous apps
- proamdev123 3y agoSwipe up from the bottom of the screen to open an app switcher of all the open apps. The most recently used app is usually immediately to the left of the one you’re currently in. On older iPhones with the Home button, double tap the Home button to get to the app switcher.
