External issue iOS PWA - no way to go back when viewing a text file

[bengineer]

Affected version

2.3.3

Hi

Our users often post text file attachments to threads.

However, on iOS PWA, if you click on the file you get this:



Then there is no way to go back. You have to close the app and reopen it instead.

I’m using iOS 18.

Thanks

Automated triage: Browser issue

Thank you for reporting this issue. Text and PDF attachments are sent as normal file downloads. In the home-screen app, iOS shows them in its own preview screen, where the forum page and its back button aren't loaded. iOS controls the navigation on that screen.

This is an automated assessment. A member of staff may review and update it.
