My app has search function When searched it open it opens a search results screen.
On search results screen, there is a button to search another word it opens search screen.
and then it opens another copy of search results screen.
When back pressed one copy of screen closes and the past copy of that screen appears.
Now I want to make a function when button clicked all screen copies should close and go back to home screen

Well, you might to close every screen when jumping to next one… and on every screen put open home screen option on when back pressed event…

No.
I have three screens
Home Screen - This has Search Button
Search Screen - Search Query
Search Results Screen - Shows Search Results and has Search another query button

On Search Screen Query - Search Screen Closes and opens another screen Search Results.
On Search Results Screen Search Button Clicked - Open Search Screen

On new query it opens a copy of Search Results screen because it has not closed before

Now the problem how to close all screen copies of search results screen at once and go back to Home

Here you go ThreeScreenBackClose.aia (4.2 KB)

Btw, It depends on which components you are using as some need this to work properly
