Reopening Window on iPhone (lemmy.world)

I've got an iPhone for work. I need to use two factor to approve myself from my phone to access secure things from the same phone. Once I open the authenticator I can't get back to the page I was at, and there's no "open windows" square button like Android has, so how do I get back to it so I can enter the 2fa?

Any help is appreciated.

I think this should do it: Swipe up a little ways slowly from the middle of the bottom of your screen, and it should open a series of pages so you can get back to where you were in the first app.

    I think there is a way to get where I am touching the screen to show up, but I forget how. Hopefully this helps.

    You may be thinking of iPadOS. You can use 5 fingers to “pinch” and that does the same.

    But I don’t believe that exists on iPhone. It doesn’t work for me, but I’m on the smaller 15 Pro where 5 fingers can’t comfortably do this.
