    You should see the first page linked at the top and bottom. At least I see the 'back' key, then a link to page 1, the three dots, and then links to the most recent 7 pages.

    Are you on mobile? I have that when I access via mobile too, but on desktop there is a button for page 1. Slight workaround is clicking the back button, then once it loads go into the web address and change the bit at the end to the page number you want. e.g. from p95 to p1

    As frankersBri said put the web address in with p2, I bookmark it when on the smartphone.

    Hello
    I also have that issue on the phone I have to go back page by page as does not have link to page one. It’s to do with the size of the screen on the phone or something, on the computer/laptop you do get page 1....the the last pages so easy to go to page one. Also on my iPad I can easily get page one. 
    So basically try using a bigger screen device like laptop or iPad/tablet. That has been my experience when I was new and facing the same frustrations. Now I go on forums on my iPad for easier access to old pages.

    Yes
    sideways increased screen size, great stuff, I need to remember I can turn my phone sideways!  Thanks for that I always have my phone upright and wondered why I have no page 1 on my phone but have page 1 on my ipad!
