Convention is to keep it in the top left. All the stock apps will use more or less the same navigation dock up top for back and other functions. Often apps will be rejected for not providing this kind of functionality predictability. This was the hardest thing for me to learn moving from Android to ios as well, but the smoothness of ios trumps all the hardship in my opinion.

Except in Safari, where it is now in the bottom left corner, after the move of url bar to the bottom of the screen.

Though there you can also swipe whole screen left to go back.
