Is there 'home' button or method to jump to the main menu?

Hopefully this isn't a silly question, but as per the title, say you're deep in the settings, say 6 levels down and you want to jump back to the start of the settings list/menu, how can you (if it's possible) do this without having to keep pressing the back button?


I'm not talking about swiping up to go to the homepage because if you do that, if you then open Settings back up, you pick-up where you left off in the menu hierarchy.


Any ideas?

I don’t think it’s a silly question at all. Unfortunately, there is no way to get back to the main settings screen without using the back button.


However, if swipe up and quit the settings app completely, when I launch it again, I am at the main menu of the settings app, not where I left off.
