QA: When I start the onboarding process, kill the app and reopen it, I return to where I left off with no way to go back to the previous screen.

Me: Please click the back button in the top left corner

    Do you what I really hate?
    When the back button on android exits the app, then you go to their support and tell you exa you this shit "use the back button on the top"

    That is fucking stupid, most apps use the standard back button as back too, and it definitively shouldn't close the fucking app.

    So hey you triggered me with this shit.
    Also, I disagree with this behaviour you described, if I kill an app for whatever reason I expect it to start from the start, not from where I was.

    @mundo03 this was iOS, so there’s only 1 back button.

    Returning to where you left off during on boarding is quite common. Our app is complicated and has a decent sized on-boarding process. Some of it requires the user to leave the app and come back. Low end devices can have a lot of issues with this. Without state restoration, users could be put into an infinite loop of getting to screen 3, leaving app, coming back to the first screen, getting to screen 3, having to leave again, returning to screen 1 again etc ...
