Keep Chat Stack

A feature that app will remember chat navigation stack when opening another chat and back.

When you are in a chat conversation then navigating to another chat via clicking:
— @username
— t.me link
— forward reference
— in-app notification banner
then swipe back, you get to the previous chat you were reading.
Otherwise, you get to the chat list if the app doesn’t keep chat stack.

📚 Keep Chat Stack is implemented on:
• Telegram for Android when clicking @username only.
• Telegram X for Android when clicking @username, forward reference, and t.me link.
• Telegram for iOS when clicking @username, forward reference, and t.me link.
• Telegram X for iOS when clicking @username, forward reference, t.me link, and in-app notification banner.

💡 Note
• Keep Chat Stack is a useful feature, it would be perfect if there is "home button" (tap hold the back button?) to direct you to the chat list when click lot of t.me links.
