Hi @Angamanga, I’m an Outreachy Applicant and I’m happy to inform you that I’ve successfully setup my development environment for mobile client and I’d love to work on this issue,

@Remi-dee Well done! I'm assigning you to this issue 👍

Thank you! @Angamanga. I'd love to mention that i was unable to reproduce this behavior as the app goes back to the deployment screen (as expected) when the back button is clicked (see the screen record below).

However, i'd love to seek clarification if this was because i had only run the mobile client on browser and not on android Studio or Xcode.

Do i neccessarily need to run mobile client on Android Studio or Xcode to reproduce this behavior?

@Remi-dee This might be the case, sometimes issues aren't reproducible. I you would like to verify the issue it would be of great help to me, please download our app on app-store or google play and try reproducing it from there, and then let me know in a comment to this thread. Thank you very much 🙏

Alright, i'd try this out and let you know what i've discovered.

Hello @Angamanga trust you're well, so after carefully testing Ushahidi Mobile App from Appstore on IOS, i am still unable to reproduce this behaviour as the back button works as it should be: (see gif below).

However, i have not been able to replicate this test on an android mobile device since i don't own one but i'll do that before the end of today and update with this thread so we can verify this is the same behavior on all platform.
