Page.OnBackButtonPressed Method

Definition

Namespace:

Microsoft.Maui.Controls

Assembly:

Microsoft.Maui.Controls.dll

Determines the behavior when the back button of the page is pressed.

protected:
 virtual bool OnBackButtonPressed();

protected virtual bool OnBackButtonPressed ();

abstract member OnBackButtonPressed : unit -> bool
override this.OnBackButtonPressed : unit -> bool

Protected Overridable Function OnBackButtonPressed () As Boolean

Returns

Boolean

true when the back navigation was handled by the override, otherwise false.

Remarks

Application developers can override this method to provide behavior when the back button is pressed. When overridden to handle or cancel the navigation yourself, this method should return true.

This only works on Android and UWP for the hardware back button. On iOS, this method will never be called because there is no hardware back button.
