iOS restoring from background issue

[davebartlett]

Hi all,

I am currently developing an AIR mobile app using Starling 2.x and Feathers 3.x.  When I publish the app out to my iPad and place it into the "background", by double pressing the home button and selecting the app again, when it restores itself it seems to be reloading.  Does anyone have any ideas, please, why this might be happening?

Thanks,

Dave

Make sure you're not using UIApplicationExitsOnSuspend. Read about how you would use that here:

and then make sure you're not using it!

Thank you, that has  sorted it!

It might be a lost of context.

Try

Starling.handleLostContext = false;

and see if it crashes when you get back in the app. If yes it's a lost of context.

Then you should see what triggers the lost of context or live with it.
