Unbind / Deregister Ionic registerBackButtonAction
Raw
ionicPlatformDeregister.js
// To solve weird android behaviors we need to manually implement Hardware back-button actions sometimes
// $ionicPlatform.registerBackButtonAction returns a deregister function
var deregisterFunction = $ionicPlatform.registerBackButtonAction(backButtonAction, 500);
// Example way of unbinding
if(something === false) {
deregisterFunction();
}
// Or if registered for a particular view / page
$scope.$on('$destroy', deregisterFunction);
function backButtonAction() {
// Does something
}
// Reference which was really hard to find when I ran into this issue
