Answer by Nazim.A for How do I go back in webview? I am using the react-navigation package in react-native

Here is a simple solution using the magic of React's State.

Hope this helps.

import React, { useRef, useState } from 'react'export default function Component () {    // This is used to save the reference of your webview, so you can control it    const webViewRef = useRef(null);    // This state saves whether your WebView can go back    const [webViewcanGoBack, setWebViewcanGoBack] = useState(false);    const goBack = () => {        // Getting the webview reference        const webView = webViewRef.current        if (webViewcanGoBack)            // Do stuff here if your webview can go back         else            // Do stuff here if your webview can't go back     }    return (        <WebView            source={{ uri: `Your URL` }}            ref={webViewRef}            javaScriptEnabled={true}            onLoadProgress={({ nativeEvent }) => {                // This function is called everytime your web view loads a page                // and here we change the state of can go back                setWebViewcanGoBack(nativeEvent.canGoBack)            }}        />    )}
