Livecode Mobile App in Background

[J. Landman Gay]

I think I remember that "wait" is a problem too.

Meanwhile I know of no solution for Android. The OS controls what runs in 
the background and when it gets wiped from RAM. You'll never know when that 
happens either. It's an issue that causes trouble.

If anyone knows of a solution before I talk about this in my presentation 
on Thursday, do tell.
