Hi,
I'm currently developing an Apple Watch app with Swift and Storyboards.

The main screen consists of three buttons going to three different view controllers. When I go to one view controller, it doesn't display the normal back "<" button at the top-left corner, even though it works.

I tried this with an older project, with a similar setup and it works as it should.

I have no code to show because it works like it should. It seems to be with the storyboard.

Anyone else have this problem?

Thanks,
Dan Uff

The code is exactly the same in both projects, with

I'm having a similar problem but with an independent watch app using Swift UI. The live preview in Xcode shows a back < button on the detail screen and it allows me to return to the parent (content view) screen. However, when I run the same app on the watch simulator and on an actual Apple Watch Series 6, the back < button doesn't appear and I can't navigate back to the parent view.

@aandyzoom01 Thanks for verifying I wasn't loosing my mind.

Can Apple comment on if/when this problem will be fixed, or even a work around?
