  In the Simplenote web application, after clicking a link in note A that navigates to note B, I want to navigate back from note B to note A. The browser’s back button doesn’t do it. I could find note A in the notes list or search for it, but is there a faster way to navigate back to note A? A keyboard shortcut would be ideal, but I would appreciate any suggestions that make this process faster.

  100% yes to this.

  I came to the support forum specifically to add this feature request. So glad somebody already suggested it.

  I absolutely love linking notes – it’s an incredibly valuable feature – but its usability is almost negated by the lack of backwards navigation.
