Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

App returns to Account settings.

What is the root cause of that problem?

We are using navigate with forceReplace: true here

App/src/pages/workspace/upgrade/GenericFeaturesView.tsx

Lines 95 to 100 in b504588

	<Button
	text={translate('workspace.common.goToWorkspaces')}
	success
	onPress={() => Navigation.navigate(ROUTES.SETTINGS_WORKSPACES, {forceReplace: true})}
	large
	/>

And using goBack when user clicks back button

App/src/pages/workspace/WorkspacesListPage.tsx

Line 445 in b504588

onBackButtonPress={() => Navigation.goBack(ROUTES.SETTINGS)}

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

1. We should add new variable backTo for route SETTINGS_WORKSPACES

2. And add backTo as Navigation.getActiveRoute() or subscription route in here

App/src/pages/workspace/upgrade/GenericFeaturesView.tsx

Line 98 in b504588

onPress={() => Navigation.navigate(ROUTES.SETTINGS_WORKSPACES, {forceReplace: true})}

3. Update function when we click the back button, if we have routes.params.backTo then we will navigate to backTo instead of ROUTES.SETTINGS

App/src/pages/workspace/WorkspacesListPage.tsx

Line 445 in b504588

onBackButtonPress={() => Navigation.goBack(ROUTES.SETTINGS)}

What specific scenarios should we cover in automated tests to prevent reintroducing this issue in the future?

None

What alternative solutions did you explore? (Optional)
