The last time I developed against Windows Phone, it was with version 8. Now I'm making use of 8.1. Maybe this is a new feature from MS, but when I press the back button on the phone, regardless of how deep I'm into the app, the app minimizes. This is seriously annoying! Is there anything that I can do?
Many thanks in advance!
Kind regards,
Yes, this is the normal behaviour in Windows Phne 8.1 non-SL apps.
Here a workaround to implement in your App.xaml.cs
file:
public App()
{
this.InitializeComponent();
HardwareButtons.BackPressed += HardwareButtons_BackPressed;
}
void HardwareButtons_BackPressed(object sender, BackPressedEventArgs e)
{
Frame rootFrame = Window.Current.Content as Frame;
if (rootFrame != null && rootFrame.CanGoBack)
{
e.Handled = true;
rootFrame.GoBack();
}
}
