Hi, I have found an issue with all my Ionic apps. They are all using variants of Ionic 3. If I launch an Ionic app, minimise it, then launch another Ionic app, they seem to interact with each other, causing various issues. One example is, launch one app, then launch another - the second app will crash on the splashscreen. Another example, launch one app, then launch another, switch back to the first app, the first app not gets white screens in the pages, or the pages are not rendered. In another more extreme example, I switched between apps, and one app loaded the content from aa completely different app! So far I have only tested this on iOS. Has anyone else come across this behaviour? And, if so, how did you solve it? All apps are using cordova-plugin-ionic-webview. 2.0.0 or around this release. ---
