No BACK button in Foobar2000 for mobile devices

I'm trying to use the Foobar app on a tablet without a physical BACK button and without persistent navigation surfaces on the screen.

Now I can't find a way to navigate back from some Foobar pages, e.g. the page where music folders can be selected and (re)scanned. There's no BACK button.

Example: the ReplayGain page. When open it, I seem to be stuck on it, and can't go back

How can I navigate back (and forth) in Foobar?

It seems unlikely there is no "back" function available in your OS's user interface.  Check the swipe gestures available (you might have to google for it).
It's your privilege to disagree, but that doesn't make you right and me wrong.

Problem noted, thanks for reporting.
I have not yet encountered an Android device with no 'back' button, but since pretty much all other Android apps have 'back' action available in their UI, foobar2000 should have one as well.
Microsoft Windows: We can't script here, this is bat country.

I use the foobar2000 mobile app v. 1.6.6 on a fiio m9 without a back-button as well. In my case it works to
swipe from left down corner diagonally to the middle.
Hope that helps.
