You can modify your code like this:


if ($ionicHistory.backView()) {
// Go back in history
$ionicHistory.backView().go();
} else if($ionicHistory.backView().stateName == 'YourStateName' || $ionicHistory.currentView().stateName == 'YourStateName'){
showConfirm();// if you want to exit in this condition
}else {
// This is the last page: Show confirmation popup
showConfirm();
}




you can fine more history information from here :http://ionicframework.com/docs/api/service/$ionicHistory/

Hi , it seems it's not working anymore with ionic 1.3.0
Since the update, backView is always returning null...

It's working fine in ionic 1.3.0 also

i tried to implement that script on my ionic app but no luck. Then i found another way to make a toast with this script:

//toast on backcall script
var lastTimeBackPress=0;
var timePeriodToExit=2000;

function onBackKeyDown(e){
e.preventDefault();
e.stopPropagation();
if(new Date().getTime() - lastTimeBackPress < timePeriodToExit){
navigator.app.exitApp();
}else{
window.plugins.toast.showWithOptions(
{
message: "Press again to exit.",
duration: "short", // which is 2000 ms. "long" is 4000. Or specify the nr of ms yourself.
position: "bottom",
addPixelsY: -40 // added a negative value to move it up a bit (default 0)
}
);

lastTimeBackPress=new Date().getTime();
}
};

document.addEventListener("backbutton", onBackKeyDown, false);
//script ends

this script work so far but it has a toast every time i press back button on all pages.
Please help me how to make make toast just when i press back button on homepage (index.html).?
