same problem.
canGoBack sometimes correct but sometimes wrong.

When the second page is loading, I get onNavigationStateChange callback contains wrong canGoBack as false, after loading finished, I get correct canGoBack. Tested on iOS 10.0.3 & Android 7.1.1, RN 0.49.3.

same issue as @0x5e in RN 0.50.3

Still happening, this especially hurts because there's no other way (that I know of) to correctly tell if the current webview can go back.

Just confirming this is a bug.

To Reproduce:

1. Instantiate a WebView like so

    <WebView
        source={{ uri: 'https://www.google.com' }}
        onNavigationStateChange={ ({ canGoback }) => console.log(canGoBack) }
    />

1. Click anything (eg the banner image) to navigate to a new page

What Happens:
The console logs false as the next page begins to load, and then true after the page has loaded

What should happen:
The console logs true as the next page begins to load and true after the page has loaded

[mmorcc]

in android the console logs true as the next page begins to load and true after the page has loaded
in ios is wrong
