When you long press on the "Back" button (left arrow, left behind on the screen), you'll access the list of the previous visited links and you can "jump" to one of them by 'clicking' it.

Hi creynish,

another option..

You could try using the Quick Control option in Lab settings.. (example image below)

One of the ideas behind Quick Controls is to hide the tool/address bar in order to give more space to web page content, it can be tricky to get the hang of at first though..

Once you have enabled quick control hold your finger on the far right of the browser screen & the Quick Controls should appear.

Without lifting your finger slide your finger to the shortcut icon (one with a small star) your bookmarks should appear..

Then simply press the Home icon..:smileyhappy:

Are you sure because the following works for me..:smileyconfused:

Hold your finger on the far right of the browser screen & the Quick Controls should appear.

Without lifting your finger, slide your finger to the shortcut icon (one with a small star) your bookmarks should appear..

Towards the top of your bokmarks window press the Home icon & the the web page that has been set as the home page will appear..

Hiya,

Can you just open a new tab by clicking on the + icon next to the tabs at the top of the screen? You do not need to scroll up, as these are always displayed (for me anyway!). The previous tab can then be closed down if need be. This takes me to my homepage in one click.

Hope this helps!

You can also touch and release the tab that you are on.

This will reveal the status bar thus no need to scroll to top of page.
