this is the handler in question

@Composable
internal fun BackButtonHandler(onBackPressed: () -> Unit) {
    Providers(
        AmbientBackPressedDispatcher provides LifecycleOwnerAmbient.current as AppCompatActivity
    ) {
        handler {
            onBackPressed()
        }
    }
}

Yeah, you don't want the LifecycleOwnerAmbient, you probably want to start with ContextAmbient

[Ian Lake]

Here's how NavHost does it: https://cs.android.com/androidx/platform/frameworks/support/+/androidx-master-dev:navigation/navigation-compose/src/main/java/androidx/navigation/compose/NavHost.kt;l=88

[Ian Lake]

Ideally, Compose just provides a OnBackPressedDispatcherOwnerAmbient that does exactly that for you

[Vinay Gaba]

Thanks a lot Ian! Let me give this a shot and see how far I get with it 😄

[Vinay Gaba]

Is something like OnBackPressedDispatcherOwnerAmbient on the roadmap?

[Ian Lake]

I'd be all for it. Do you mind filing an issue against Jetpack -> Compose?

[Vinay Gaba]

Absolutely!

[Ian Lake]

If you could paste a link to it here when you file it, I'll make sure it is routed to the right person
