I have a problem which I just can’t figure out to fix.

I have a collection of items:

When I click on an item it opens a detail screen for the item:

When I click the edit button it takes me to an edit screen:

On the edit screen i have button that takes me to an ‘Explainer screen’ which is a “Show new screen” - “Overlay” action:

My problem is when the user goes back from the explainer. Instead of going back to the edit screen, they’re brought all the way back to the detail screen.

Is there any way to fix this?

What happens if they click the X vs Back button?

Or if its a Slide in vs Overlay?

Slide in seems to work…
