# Enable Back button on Flow steps

While navigating in a Flow, there might be occasions where an end-user might want to go back to a previous step and edit a value or view the step again. Users can click the Back button to navigate back to the previous step.

Note:

- The **Back** button doesn't appear if the previous step is optional.
- If the **Back** button for a step is manually disabled and later a step is added, moved, or deleted, then the Back button is reintroduced to the step in which Back button is disabled.
- If the **Back** button for a step is manually disabled and a step is added, moved, or deleted, then the Back button is reintroduced wherever applicable. The earlier change is overwritten.
- Add or remove the **Back** button from a specific Flow using the Customize option, or from all Flows using the Interaction dropdown.
