How do I go back on an iPhone 7 Plus? Don't tell me to swipe

Please help. I just switched to Apple. There is no back button on my iPhone 7+. I am within the apple called Google Authenticator. I need to go back to the main page on that app to scan a QR code, but I can't. No online advice works. Swiping left to right only opens up different apps. I need to go back WITHIN an app.


Thanks!

There are users who start their post bashing Apple and praising other product like Android. I understand you're frustrated but in here, Apple bashing is treated as if you've insulted Apple fan's mother. They will jump on you. I guarantee that. I don't consider myself an Apple or Google fan. I use both. I don't praise one or the other because there are things that I like in both products. So, in the future, it is best to start a post explaining what you're doing.

The reason it doesn't go over well is because if someone is angry and in a very negative frame of mind, especially of the "Apple is bad/stupid/evil" variety, it's almost impossible to help the. It makes absolutely no difference to me how people feel about Apple, Google or the Queen of England. Those feelings have no place in a technical support question. I think I'm not alone.


So while I agree with your final advice, I do take umbrage at your insinuation that we are all somehow crazed Apple fans who can't bear criticism of Apple.
