I have 2 screens and I am trying to achieve understand how to achieve page state. For example, in the below screen, I have 4 options, and all of them take the user to the same screen the only difference is API getting called for each of them is different to build a list. I am trying to handle back arrow action, and that's where I am having issues.
Use Case - When user is on screen 2 he is playing the song, now on back press song continues to play. Now when the user again chooses the same option from screen 1 I want to show the same list without reload and selection. If user selects any other option it should behave normal, which is working.
Solution -
- I can hardcode loaded songs list and send back to screen 1 and then again get that back with the selection but this will take lot of resources.
- AutomaticKeepAliveClientMixin i tried this tutorial but that didn't help or kept state active.
- PageStorage is 3rd option i saw but i found majority of the time this is being used on app where we have a tab.
