Is there a way to maneuver between records?

In Interface, When you open a record, you see the record details, in there you can see two small arrows on the left that help you go back and forth in records, but if that same record details page, you opened another linked record, the new record details page will not have the arrows.
Any one knows why? is there a way to make them appear?

The first record details page, it has the arrows
The second record details page, it doesn’t have the arrows

Hi Hisham!

The arrows are available on a Record Review interface page and allow you to move between the records that are listed/stacked on the left side of that page.

When you click into a linked record, though, you are essentially opening a record from a different table that is connected to the original record through that linked record field. At that point, you are no longer navigating the original Record Review list, so the previous/next arrows do not appear.

In other words, the arrows navigate between the records in the Record Review page’s record set. They are not intended to navigate between records after drilling into a linked record from another table.

Hope this clarifies it a bit. All the best!
