Issue Summary

• Android 14 back button crashes the Jira mobile application
• The issue is present on all Android phones with Android 14 version. The problem is not reproducible on Android 15, Android 13 and lower.
• The issue only appears when apps exited using Back button. When exiting via home button app behaves as it should be.
• The root cause of the issue is a new restriction from Google on Android 14 to start activity from background. Because of the difference in app lifecycle when exiting via back button and home button, the issue only appears when exiting via back button.
• Force closing helps to open the app after the application was exited via back button and there is no need to restart the phone or remove cash.
