Add a Back Button on the final "Add Machine" Screen #594

Description:

When a user selects a machine from the map and proceeds to the final "Add Machine" screen (where comments can be added), the interface presents two options:

  • Add
  • Cancel

Tapping Cancel returns the user to the previous screen (the machine selection screen). However, this behavior may not be intuitive. From a UX perspective, "Cancel" typically indicates aborting the current flow and returning to the original context, in this case, the location detail view (e.g., Quarterworld), not the previous step in the flow.


Proposed Changes:

  1. Update the Cancel button so it returns the user to the specific location view (i.e.. Quarterworld), effectively canceling the entire machine-adding process.
  2. Add a new "Back" button (likely in the top-left corner) to explicitly allow users to return to the machine selection screen if they want to pick a different machine.

Rationale:

This change would improve clarity and navigation for users by:

  • Making the Cancel button behave as expected (i.e., abandoning the flow).
  • Giving users a clear, separate path to return and choose a different machine without implying they are cancelling the entire add action.

Let me know if you'd like me to submit a PR for this!
