Yay! The SivaSiva app works well on Android. 1 ½ years in the making!

I have two requests that there be way to quit the app.

But I recall you telling me that "User knows how to quit." And that  "quit" was not an important function in the app itself.

I may not have got that right… or maybe there are nuances about the way Android works.  Can you remind to Best Practice?

I was thinking of making the bottom  "Home" button return a dialog.

"You are home. You like to quit?"
       Cancel. | OK


Congratulations to you and the development team! Such an all-inclusive app! We will be app evangelists!

One tweak possibly needed:  I've downloaded this morning on a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge.   Works very well, except there is no exit.  I didn't find a way to close the app.   The only way to exit was to click the capacitive "recent" button,<https://gadgetguideonline.com/s7/galaxy-s7-online-manual/galaxy-s7-buttons/> then close the app window.  Maybe this is by design, but thought I would let you know.
