Can you give some more information? Where do you have the code at? What are you trying to do?

Here’s an example in the app.run:

app.run(function($ionicPlatform, $state) {
    
    // Override the android back button
    $ionicPlatform.registerBackButtonAction(function () {
        if ($state.current.name == "home") {
            // do something for this state
        } else {
            navigator.app.backHistory();
        }
    }, 100);

});

var appstarter = angular.module(‘starter’, [‘ionic’, ‘starter.controllers’])

appstarter.run(function ($ionicPlatform, $ionicHistory) {
$ionicPlatform.ready(function () {
// Hide the accessory bar by default (remove this to show the accessory bar above the keyboard
// for form inputs)
if (window.cordova && window.cordova.plugins.Keyboard) {
cordova.plugins.Keyboard.hideKeyboardAccessoryBar(true);
cordova.plugins.Keyboard.disableScroll(true);
}
if (window.StatusBar) {
// org.apache.cordova.statusbar required
StatusBar.styleDefault();
}
});

$ionicPlatform.registerBackButtonAction(function (event) {
    alert(1);
    event.preventDefault();
}, 100);

});

This is my code in app.js I want to restrict android back button but this event is not firing.

Hi,

I am having the same problem. I want to clear history when I tap to a tab. So I want to use registerBackButtonAction to handle this. But I am not able to get registerBackButtonAction worked.

What am I doing wrong? Is there anyone solved this issue?

Thanks in advance.

Hi! I worked most of the solutions until I added the plugin InAppBrowser, now I stopped working. What could be the problem? :expressionless:
