Ionic framework $state.go('app.home'); is adding back button on page where I want to go (how to remove it)?

I have app with sidebar menu. I am on second page and I am calling controller function which redirect me to first page using:

$state.go('app.home');

Problem is that on this page is now displayed back button next sidebar menu icon, see image below:

enter image description here

Could somebody tell me how to deny to add back button into pages which has assigned sidebar menu?

Thanks for any help.

app.js is with router config is following:

angular.module('Test', ['ionic', 'config', 'Test', 'LocalStorageModule'])

.run(function($ionicPlatform) {
  $ionicPlatform.ready(function() {
    // Hide the accessory bar by default (remove this to show the accessory bar above the keyboard
    // for form inputs)
    if(window.cordova && window.cordova.plugins.Keyboard) {
      cordova.plugins.Keyboard.hideKeyboardAccessoryBar(true);
    }
    if(window.StatusBar) {
      // org.apache.cordova.statusbar required
      StatusBar.styleDefault();
    }
  });
})

.config(function($stateProvider, $urlRouterProvider, localStorageServiceProvider) {
   localStorageServiceProvider
     .setPrefix('max_relax');
   $stateProvider

    .state('app', {
      url: '/app',
      abstract: true,
      templateUrl: 'templates/menu.html',
      controller: 'AppCtrl'
    })

    .state('app.home', {
      url: '/home',
      views: {
        'menuContent' :{
          templateUrl: 'templates/home.html',
          controller: 'HomeCtrl'
        }
      }
    })

    .state('app.saved', {
      url: '/saved',
      views: {
        'menuContent' :{
          templateUrl: 'templates/saved.html',
          controller: 'SavedCtrl'
        }
      }
    })
    .state('app.settings', {
      url: '/settings',
      views: {
        'menuContent' :{
          templateUrl: 'templates/settings.html',
          controller: 'SettingsCtrl'
        }
      }
    });
  // if none of the above states are matched, use this as the fallback
  $urlRouterProvider.otherwise('/app/home');
});

Edit:

Added menu template:

<ion-side-menus>

  <ion-pane ion-side-menu-content>
    <ion-nav-bar class="bar-stable">
      <ion-nav-back-button class="button-clear"><i class="icon ion-ios7-arrow-back"></i> Back</ion-nav-back-button>
    </ion-nav-bar>
    <ion-nav-view name="menuContent" animation="slide-left-right"></ion-nav-view>
  </ion-pane>

  <ion-side-menu side="left">
    <header class="bar bar-header bar-stable">
      <h1 class="title">Menu</h1>
    </header>
    <ion-content class="has-header">
      <ion-list>
        <ion-item nav-clear menu-close href="#/app/home">
          Home
        </ion-item>
        <ion-item nav-clear menu-close href="#/app/saved">
          Saved
        </ion-item>
        <ion-item nav-clear menu-close href="#/app/settings">
          Settings
        </ion-item>

      </ion-list>
    </ion-content>
  </ion-side-menu>
</ion-side-menus>

Use $ionicHistory in your controller before calling $state.go('app.home').

.controller('HomeCtrl', function($scope,...,$ionicHistory) {
  ...
  $ionicHistory.nextViewOptions({
    disableBack: true
  });

  $state.go('app.home');
});

You can set nextViewOptions before $state.go('Yourstate'). Like In your controller, you can write,

$ionicHistory.nextViewOptions({
  disableBack: true
});
$state.go('app.home');

So for that transition, it will clear the history stack and sets next view as root of the history stack.


At controller which you want to return HomeCtrl:

.controller('SavedCtrl', function($scope,...,$ionicHistory) {
  ...
    $ionicHistory.nextViewOptions({
       disableBack: true
    });

  $state.go('app.home');
 })
.controller('HomeCtrl', function($scope,...,$ionicHistory) {
     $ionicHistory.clearHistory();
 })

$ionicNavBarDelegate.showBackButton(false);

As long as you have <ion-nav-back-button></ion-nav-back-button> included in <ion-nav-bar> you will see a back button by default on any view using app.

Removing <ion-nav-back-button> will remove the back button from all of the views using app. You can selectively disable it based on what template your viewing by setting hide-back-button="true" on the <ion-view> of that template.

So, in your case, removing <ion-nav-back-button class="button-clear"><i class="icon ion-ios7-arrow-back"></i> Back</ion-nav-back-button> from menu.html will hide the back button on all views using app.
