I haven't added the External label as I wasn't 100% sure about this issue. Please take a look and add the label if you agree it's a bug and can be handled by external contributors.

I can reproduce this. The back button doesn't work. However, the swiping-back gesture does work for me. The back button should work if it's there though.

@NikkiWines I see ou led the SAML implementation. Thoughts on if this needs to be internal?

[NikkiWines]

Should be fine to be external! No back end code should need to change for this to be fixed.

Cool cool. TY!
