Don't Prompt or Exit App when hit back button (Android)

5 votes

When I'm on the home screen and hit the back button the app Prompts me with "Are you sure you want to close the App?" and a tick/select box "If Yes, never ask again" (screenshot attached). What about "If No, never ask again". I think it's a good idea to keep the app open in the background but not all users may want that and sometimes if we change our mind on this option it would be good to have the setting option.

So can you please add a selection under settings for android users to "Keep app running in the background when back button is pressed on home screen" or something like that. Obviously this only applies to android users. Or at the very least change the option "If Yes, never ask again" to "Never ask again". But it would be nice to empower your users to allow them to change their mind again in the future... rather than NEVER!

Thanks, Gary

When I use the back button on the home screen, the app asks to close, with a checkbox If yes, don't ask again. I would like to have No, don't ask again.

Going back does not indicate exit! Please make the option to choose "no, never ask again"
