Is it possible to intercept the back action in react native on any route? Lets say I am on a page and I want navigate a user on a different route when he/she performs a back action.
or even a popup confirm.
You can use React's [BackHandler][1] for instance
// import the back handler from react-native
import { BackHandler } from 'react-native'
// fire the listener on every render (including the componentWillUnmount)
useLayoutEffect(() => {
BackHandler.addEventListener(
"hardwareBackPress",
{
console.warn('about to go back....')
}
);
}, [])
