Description from extension meta

Restores browser behavior of navigating to previous page when pressing the Backspace key.

Image from store Backspace to go Back
Description from store This extension requires permissions to inject a piece of code in all of the pages you visit. If that freaks you out, that's ok. Handing over those permissions freaks me out too. You can choose to install this extension from source (it's very short) to make sure it's not doing anything malicious.

  • (2023-09-10) Vũ Công Duẩn: Work fines for me!
  • (2023-05-23) Mauricio Andres Ramirez Lozada: Worked fine. Stopped working recently.
  • (2023-01-18) 김용환: 작동합니까? 이번에 엣지업데이트됐다던데 그후로 안돼네; -추가- 업데이트 되었나 보네요. 작동합니다.
  • (2023-01-16) C Miller: Also lost this function as of 109.0.5414.75 (Official Build) (64-bit). Alt + left arrow works in Chrome, but not in other apps where backspace is the only option.
  • (2023-01-16) Vincent Tuminello: No longer working!
  • (2023-01-15) Vadim Kantorov: The extension worked until updating to Chrome 109.0.5414.74. Now it stopped working :( It now fails with event.path being undefined in the Content script on these two lines: // Overcomes issues with custom elements wrapping INPUT const target = event.path[0];
  • (2023-01-14) Andi K: Does not work any more.
  • (2022-10-12) E S: Love this extension but could be improved by having the ability to disable on certain sites.
  • (2022-09-18) H E: good
  • (2022-03-04) Shannon Benzing: Works on my other computers but not on my new one. It keeps defaulting back to "on click". I cannot be changing the settings for this thing on every blasted page I visit. Is this even kept up anymore?
  • (2021-06-01) Will Ashley: Doesn't let you denylist certain sites. Some sites have horrible engineers behind them where if you type a backspace in a text area, it will trigger the extension and navigate back instead of actually doing a backspace. You need to give us the option to disable the extension on a per-domain basis
  • (2021-03-03) Y 110: いつもながらgoogleはオナニストだよな! ユーザビリティには程遠いサービスだよ!! ほんと、わがままな会社だよ!googleは、、、、、、 これだけのバックスースの拡張機能がリリースされて、それを入れている人がこれだけいる意味を考えてほしいものだよ!
  • (2021-02-03) Retro Man: After updating Brave to version 1.19.90 on a Mac this extension was flagged as being malware and was automatically disabled. I have switched to the Google "Go Back With Backspace" at https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/go-back-with-backspace/eekailopagacbcdloonjhbiecobagjci It works the same as the previous extension.
  • (2020-10-21) Christina Eneroth: This is an essential extension. I have no idea how this basic functionally could be removed from Chrome. It is up to individual websites to warn if the user is about to leave whiteout saving first. That covers backspace, back button in browser, forward button in browser, back button on mouse, forward button on mouse, links, closing the browser, closing the tab etc. Removing a key feature because some sites are broken is stupid!
  • (2020-04-11) Stefanno: it saved so much of my time that reviewing this 5 star is the least i could do. must have.
  • (2020-03-12) S LT: gut, aber gibt bessere alternative, die auch mit chrome remote desktop umgehen kann.
  • (2020-02-18) Mark Young: Brilliant!
  • (2019-11-19) 김도현: Nice extension, I wanna switch on/off this function. thanks.
  • (2019-09-13) Sergey: Great!!!
  • (2019-08-19) zombehhunter: Has done exactly as described, have never had any issue with the page going back while typing in a text field.
  • (2019-08-06) Trailfinders Ltd: Perfect
  • (2019-07-19) John B: Its great but a new problem has arisen with Chrome Remote Desktop. Chrome Remote Desktop is now a browser only app and pressing backspace within it (editing text on remote computer) navigates you out of the session - quite jarring! An exception needs to be added for this site, or the functionality for users to omit sites. Thanks!
  • (2019-05-15) Raz Havosha: work!
  • (2019-02-07) Leonardo Bellettini: It works as expected
  • (2019-02-01) Corey Ogburn: It would be nice if there was an exclusion list. Very rarely I find a site that handles backspace a little differently like google's remotedesktop.google.com where if I'm connected to a remote machine and want to backspace something on that machine, instead this plugin takes me back a page. 99% of the time this plugin is seamlessly doing exactly what I want, but at least for one website I wish I could disable it.
  • (2019-01-25) Hyunjin Jeong (정현진): The best extension in Chrome.
  • (2018-12-26) Jan Nowak: Not working :<
  • (2018-12-14) Marat Alexandria: на комп не сталю это приложение тк есть а мышка а ноуте самое то спс за нее
  • (2018-12-06) Андрей Сумароков: Спасибо! Категорически согласен с многими пользователями здесь - какого икса Гугл убил такую удобную функцию?!
  • (2018-11-22) Николай Егоров: Одна из причин почему ненавидел хром и пользовался фоксом - выпиленный backspace. Теперь одной причиной меньше, спасибо!
  • (2018-11-06) 김석진: 좋네요~~~~
  • (2018-10-10) Katherine Silkaitis: Every time I get a new computer, I remember how stupid it is that I need to get this extension. So, thanks to the extension, and hoping one day Chrome will just reinstate this feature.
  • (2018-10-06) Francesco Castelo: Hitting back goes back 2 pages, not one.
  • (2018-09-27) Thijs van Uijtert: works great... a little too good, if typing in "mathway" and u press backspace, you leave the page x.x for most websites this doesn't occur, but i'd like to see a "pause" option so i can pause the extension when i don't need it
  • (2018-09-07) Ayman: Indispensable extension. As soon as Chrome removed this functionality, I knew I'd have to go and find an extension to restore it. Now, going back on pages is faster than ever like before.
  • (2018-09-06) Garret Jacobs: I liked this for a while but when viewing web PDFs and filling out some other forums backspace will still go back a page instead of deleting the entered text. This means you just lost everything you filled out. My new mouse has forward and back browsing buttons so I use those instead now.
  • (2018-08-07) Jayesper: Does not seem to be working for me. Unsure if it is fully compliant as of now. Using in Torch, will find the one I used in Chrome.
  • (2018-07-15) SJ P: good 좋아요
  • (2018-06-14) Clutch Nixon: Didn't work for me unfortunately.
  • (2018-04-11) Does not work in chrome webstore. Alt + left arrow on the other hand does.
  • (2018-03-08) Ryan Sullivan: I love having backspace to go back.
  • (2018-02-03) Nanette Turner: Initially I loved this extension but it stopped working!! I tried disabling it and re-enabling it to no success. I finally had to uninstall it, re-install it, restart Chrome and Wah-Lah it's back to working again. I've rated this a "3" because of the issue of it not working..... but I've re-installed it so maybe I could have rated it higher.
