Xamarin.forms: Shell Navigation Back Button Title

Created on 18 Sep 2019  ·  6Comments  ·  Source: xamarin/Xamarin.Forms

On iOS, it seems that NavigationPage.BackButtonTitle does not work. The back button always shows some text, when I set the value to be empty.

Is their a work around or a different way?

This still seems to be an issue. What's the Shell equivalent of NavigationPage.BackButtonTitle="..."?

@wesoos Can you please attach a small project that demonstrates this issue? Thanks!

@Jared-Aus as a workaround just set the title of the previous page to empty.

This issue hasn't been solved yet.
I create a Project with VS for Mac Shell template.
I add the ItemsPage.xaml the following:

NavigationPage.BackButtonTitle="Change"

But the detail page back button title is not changed.
I attached the small reproduce project.

Thanks.

Also having this issue, tried this and still not removing the Title of the previous page from the back button text. Could you reopen the ticket please?

<Shell.BackButtonBehavior> <BackButtonBehavior TextOverride=""></BackButtonBehavior> </Shell.BackButtonBehavior>
