Unexpected Navigation Behavior When Exiting "View Source" in /e/OS Browser
- /e/ version: 2.3-t
- Device model(s): beyond2lte
- Developer mode enabled: yes
- Device rooted: no
- Trackers blocker enabled: yes
Summary
When using the "View source" feature in the /e/OS browser, there is no option to close the source view directly. The back button (or swipe left) closes the source view but also navigates one step back in the browser history, resulting in a two-step navigation action instead of returning to the last viewed page.
Steps to Reproduce:
- Open the /e/OS browser.
- Navigate to any webpage.
- Use the "View source" feature to view the page's source code.
- Attempt to exit the source view using the back button (or swipe left in some navigations).
Expected Behavior:
Exiting the source view should return the user to the last viewed webpage without navigating further back in the browser history.
Actual Behavior:
Exiting the source view using the back button also navigates one page backward in history, effectively making two steps: closing the source view and navigating back to the second previous page.
