I have the Navigation bar enabled. But when I click the Back Button on HTML Screen(2), it takes me back to my Menu Screen, when I really wanted to go back to my HTML Screen(1). I've turned on the "Show Browser Button" but at least in the xcode ios emulator, a browser button has not appeared. Any thoughts/help/advice?

If so, think it this way - it is a back button for the plugin that takes you back to what called the plugin (e.g. the menu). It isn't 'aware' of the html content the plugin is showing.

Any idea/clues on how I can go 'back'/previous html screen on ios? From what I'm understanding the Android has buttons built in that will do that?

Be aware, though - users will get confused if you have two back buttons on the screen. Comments You can enable the bottom toolbar for the screen, which has a back button on it.
