I created a tab navigator for an app using @react-navigation/native: ^6.0.16
. But when I tried to go back it always goes back to the first screen on the tab navigator.
For example if I navigate from Home >> Notifications >> Profile and press the android back button instead of Notifications I reach Home. Basically going back on any tab (other than Home) navigates me back to home.
This issue does not seem to be a problem for @react-navigation/native: v5.x
but I rather not go back to using version 5.x.
Is there any way I can fix this issue on version 6.x?
You can checkout a small snack of the issue here.
Just goto package.json and replace "@react-navigation/native": "^6.0.16",
with "@react-navigation/native": "^5.9.8",
to get the intended output.

As per docs here, you can specify the behaviour you want:
This controls what happens when goBack is called in the navigator. This includes pressing the device's back button or back gesture on Android.
It supports the following values:
firstRoute - return to the first screen defined in the navigator (default) initialRoute - return to initial screen passed in initialRouteName prop, if not passed, defaults to the first screen order - return to screen defined before the focused screen history - return to last visited screen in the navigator; if the same screen is visited multiple times, the older entries are dropped from the history none - do not handle back button
