Hey @mohmdahmad1968w276ch welcome to the community! 👋

The Screen1 drawer has a `BackButtonPressed` event handler:

 ![backButtonPressed](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/b/1/b1c4378231a0ed0226f631947994f2c00f3ad951.png)

Is that what you’re looking for?

Hi @mohmdahmad1968w276ch,

This doesn’t work properly on iOS. From my experience of this component it is android only. If you want to stop users going back a screen use stack navigators with gestures set to false. There is a bug with this component as of this post so you need to switch the true/false switch back and forth to set gestures to false. Hope this helps.
