Is there a way to backtrack in the web app without using the browser ‘back’ button? Or the conttext menu ‘back’ option?
All the shortcuts on my laptop/browser seem to work except the ones for ‘back’, i.e. ‘alt-left arrow’; or ‘backspace’ / ‘shift-backspace’.
Thank you,
Jim Julian

In the upper right hand corner click the down arrow
Select keyboard shortcuts
I don’t think there’s a dedicated back button but there might be something in there that works

If you are using Chrome, you can install this extension by Google from the web store.
[Go Back With Backspace - Chrome Web Store](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/go-back-with-backspace/eekailopagacbcdloonjhbiecobagjci) That will restore the ability to go back in most cases using the backspace.
If using Firefox, you can follow the steps here: [How to restore backspace button function? | Firefox Support Forum | Mozilla Support](https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1336330)
Edge (chromium based) should allow you to install the extension from the first link.
For any other browser, I’m not sure as those are the main 3 I use.

Huh. You know, I was just using my browser to set up a music playlist, and I wondered what happened to the back button in the UI. I suppose that since browsers have a back button already, I guess they felt there wasn’t a need for one in the browser player.
I could’ve sworn there used to be one in the browser, but since I use the Plex-for-Windows app most of the time, maybe I was just thinking of that app? Would it hurt to include it in the browser app, for consistency’s sake?
