Forward and back buttons on mouse to control forward and back on desktop

When using the in-browser version of workflowy, the forward and back buttons on the side of my mouse can be used to go back to a page I was on and to go back forward in the history. On the desktop app version of workflowy however, these buttons do not work. The app has forward and back arrows on it, but the mouse buttons do not control this. Being able to use these buttons is very helpful for easy navigation as it allows you to quickly go back if you accidently click the wrong bullet point or just want to go back to the page you were on.

  I second this. It makes it really difficult to use the desktop app.

  It would be convenient to add hotkeys like in Slack

  command + [  – Back

  command + [ – Forward

  You have hotkeys like that: 

  See link: https://workflowy.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360067775352-Keyboard-shortcut-back-to-last-list-

  If you're on the desktop app you can use Ctrl+[ and Ctrl+] (Windows) and Alt+< and Alt+> (Mac) to navigate list history. If you're in the web app, you can use your browser's back arrow.
