While playing Aerofly FS Global, I accidentally return to the phone’s home screen. When I re-enter the app, it just shows a “Loading...” screen. After returning to the flight, I notice that some of the cockpit settings have changed. For example, autopilot values, speed, or altitude may no longer be the same. This kind of change after leaving the app can negatively affect the flight experience. While playing Aerofly FS Global, for example when entering the route into the MCDU, I sometimes accidentally touch the screen and return to the phone’s home menu. When I go back into the app, it only shows a “Loading...” screen for a moment, and then I notice that the aircraft is already running. Some cockpit settings, like autopilot values, speed, or altitude, may be changed or reset. This issue affects the realism and continuity of the flight experience, especially during important setup phases.
My settings in the airplane cockpit are changing.

It took me a while to get used to this. Even though I no longer accidentally press the home button, the possibility exists and it is very stressful when it happens. Even when it happens at cruise level and the cabin configuration is not that different from what it was before, it is still VERY annoying to deal with the plane all out of configuration.
I would REALLY like to see this fixed! -

In this case the operating system decided to kill the app entirely and then restart it from scratch. You're basically starting a brand new flight from the last known position. I hope we can add it that the last aircraft state is restored entirely but what if the app was updated in between? Then your sim could just crash, so we have to add safety checks for this as well.

It would be really great if you could fix this problem. Because when I accidentally go back to the home screen before starting the engine, and when I go back in, the engines are still running. Even if a call comes to my phone, for example, when I answer the call and end the call, I encounter the same problem. My settings are reset.

On Android this is a technical limitation, the native app is getting killed. No way around it as far as we know. On iOS this is not the case if you have enough memory.

There is enough memory. Generally, no application has this problem.

I'm experiencing a recurring issue with Aerofly FS Global that seems to happen across all devices, regardless of RAM or performance.
Whenever I accidentally switch to the home screen or receive a phone call (even if I return to the app quickly), the flight resets or behaves incorrectly. For example:
My aircraft settings are lost (cold & dark or custom states are gone),
Engines start running automatically,
Route, autopilot, or MCDU entries are cleared,
All previous configurations are reset as if I started a new flight.
This happens even before I start the engines. It's not a device-specific problem — it occurs on all platforms I've tested.
It would be incredibly helpful if the simulator could auto-save the flight state or prompt to resume the last session when returning to the app, especially after brief interruptions.
I understand there may be technical limitations, but I hope this feature can be considered in future updates. It would greatly improve realism and user experience.
Thank you!
