Android App No Longer Runs in Background

Post by MakoWish »

I just updated the BI app on my Android phone, and it will no longer run in the background. I frequently run the app in the background as a sort of baby monitor, but as of this latest update, the second the app loses foreground focus, it crashes.

Anybody else running into this? I am going to submit a support ticket now.

UPDATE: I actually just noticed it is only if I have audio output enabled on the current camera view (speaker icon green). If I disable the audio output, the app does not crash when it loses focus, but it completely breaks the reason I ever run the app in the background.
