Why does the Kite app log out when I switch to another app?

Your Kite app logs out when you switch to another app or minimise it because your device is in power-saving mode or is preventing the application from running in the background.

How to prevent automatic logout

Adjust power settings:

  • Android devices: Go to Phone settings > Battery > Change the power plan to performance or turn off power-saving mode.
  • iOS devices: Go to Settings > Battery > Turn off Low Power Mode.

Enable background running:

  • Android devices: Change the Kite application to Not optimised to prevent your device from stopping the app in the background.
  • Allow the application to run in the background and keep it running when the screen is off.

If the issue persists: Clear the application data from your phone settings.
