Behavior of the Android “back” button

Dear,

1) Assume you are on a real Android smartphone. You create your website with a mobile menu in the header. You expand the mobile menu, then you hit the “back” button of the Android OS. What happens ? This back button asks the browser to load the previous page in the browser. What do I expect instead? I want this back button to instead “collapse” the mobile menu that is expanded.

2) Assume you are on a real Android smartphone. You create your website with a mobile menu in the header. You add the new “drilldown” style. You expand the mobile menu. You expand the first level of any menu item, so you are in the sub-menu, and then you hit the “back” button on the Android OD. What happens? This back button asks the browser to load the previous page in the browser. What do I expect instead? I want this back button to make the mobile menu return to the above menu level.

Hello,

Do you have any examples of real websites or WordPress themes that work this way on Android devices?

Kind Regards

I didn’t find unfortunately, but is it feasible in your opinion?

That would be such an improvement in terms of user experience.

I’m not sure it will be convenient. That is why I asked you if you have any examples. This button in the browser should switch between pages in history and should not affect the interface of the site itself.

Ok you can close this ticket, thanks
