Navigating to Previous View with Acrobat Reader Mobile App

I've searched this concept for days and have found mostly outdated responses. I've created a PDF in InDesign with a button to take you back to the previous visited page(or Previous View as Acrobat terms it), using this code:

app.goBack();

I've also tried creating the button in InDesign and applying the action "Go To Previous View".

Both of these methods work on a full version of MacOS or Windows. Neither work on iOS(the latest version on a 2018 iPad Pro) or Android. Has anyone had luck with this, or could it be a security issue on mobile devices that won't allow storing the history of pages?
